Industrial Agglomeration and the future in the New Industrial Era,

这个研究项目是一个为期三年的项目。前两年主要在日本、中国和泰国的工业区进行调研。，然后收集与老挝工业区有关的数据。去年研究课题的主题是对前几年调查所得的经济业绩进行分析。为了分析和完成研究项目，项目参与者一起进行了所有结论性的讨论。此外，一些与会者还对应邀工厂组成的几个日本机械/金属工业区和传统生产区进行了补充调研。除了这些地区外，还对大分县的“一村一品”运动进行了调查。调查结果显示，日本工业区在产品和地理空间上都出现了重组。这种重组更多的是反映了从日本到东亚的工业视角的转变。通过对东亚工业区的分析，以日本子公司为核心企业形成的泰国工业区、泰国的“一村一品”运动和中国天津国有企业解体过程中发展起来的工业区，得出以下结论：东亚工业园区的竞争力越来越强，而日本工业园区则有可能利用先进和及时的制造能力来发展。这意味着发展与东亚国家的互补关系。该研究项目在一定程度上是成功的，通过从日本方面和中国/泰国方面观察日本和其他东亚国家工业区的持续变化，获得了总体把握。据此，对“东亚化”框架下日本工业区结构变化与发展的理论与实证方法进行了初步总结。少

This research project was three years' project. First two years were spent in undertaking investigations on industrial districts of Japan, China and Thailand., followed by collection of data related to Laotian industrial regions. The theme for the research project in the last year was analysis of economic performance gained through investigations conducted in preceding years.For the purpose of analysis and completion of the research project, participants of the project held all-conclusive discussion lodged together. Also, some participants made complementary investigations into a couple of Japanese machine/metal industrial districts formed by invited factories and traditional producing districts as well. In addition to these districts, ‘one village one product' movement in Oita prefecture was investigated.The results of investigations revealed that there appeared reorganization in Japanese industrial districts both in terms of their products and geographic spaces. The reorganization se … More emed to reflect the transition of industrial perspective from Japan to East Asia. The analysis of East Asian industrial districts…industrial district in Thailand formed by Japanese-affiliated firms as core firms, ‘one village one product' movement in Thailand and the industrial district developed in process of dissolution of state-owned enterprises in Tianjin, China…contributed to the following : East Asian industrial districts are getting more and more competitive, but Japanese industrial districts have possibility of development by making good use of advanced as well as prompt manufacturing ability. That means development of complementary relationship with East Asian counterparts.The research project was successful to some extent in acquiring a general grasp of ongoing changes in industrial districts of Japan and other East Asian countries by looking over them both from Japanese side and China/Thailand side.Accordingly, interim summary was brought to completion as to the theoretical and empirical approaches to structural changes and development of Japanese industrial districts in the framework of ‘East-Asianaisation'.
