THE DEVELOPMENT OF URBAN SYSTEM AND CITIES IN NEWLY OPENED REGIONS

本研究旨在分析东北亚、东非和南部非洲新开放地区城市体系、城市功能和城市内部结构的历史变迁。主要研究区域是岛国，如非洲南部的毛里求斯、马达加斯加、塞舌尔和日本的北海道，这些国家的殖民历史没有新开放地区长。在这些地区，可以看到城市主导；门户城市通过连接新边疆和发达地区的城市功能，比其他城市要大得多。我收集了主要的统计数据、城市地图、GIS数据以及历史和工业方面的参考资料，并研究了门户城市的土地利用和城市景观，如毛里求斯的路易港和第四堡，法属留尼汪岛的圣丹尼斯和马达加斯加的塔那那利佛。通过这次研究，我写了九本书的草稿，在韩国的国际会议上做了关于门户城市的主题演讲，并作为日本非洲研究协会的研究会议主持了关于毛里求斯的研讨会。并发表了本研究的最终报告，共分三部分九章。本报告的内容说明如下。在第一部分中，从国际比较的角度，我比较了北海道和南非共和国（第一章）和小樽、横滨、开普敦和仁川作为门户城市（第二章）。在第二部分中，我考察了非洲城市的特点；城市的一般性质在第3章，内罗毕在第4章，开普敦在第5章，毛里求斯的城市在第6章，塔那那利佛在第7章。最后在第三部分分析了日本城市的特点，在第八章分析了北海道城市的一般性质和城市功能，在第九章分析了日本城市的中心区域结构。

This study aims to analyze the historical changes of urban system, city functions and internal structures within cities of the newly opened regions in North East Asia, the Eastern and Southern Africa. Main study areas are the island countries, such as Mauritius, Madagascar and Seychelles in the Southern Africa and Hokkaido in Japan, where the history of colonization is not so long as the newly opened regions. In these areas, there can be seen the urban primacy ; the gateway city is extremely bigger than other cities by the urban function connecting new frontiers and developed regions. I collected main statistics, city maps, GIS data and references about the history and industries and studied the land use and cityscape of gateway cities such as Port Louis and Quatre Bornes in Mauritius, Saint Denis in Reunion island of French territory and Antananarivo in Madagascar.As the result of this study, I wrote some drafts for nine books, made a keynote speech about gateway cities on the international conference in South Korea and hosted the workshop about Mauritius as the research meeting of Japanese Association for African Studies. And I published the final report of this study which consists of three parts and nine chapters. The contents of this report are indicated as follows. As for Part I, from the viewpoint of international comparison, I compared Hokkaido and Republic of South Africa (Chapter 1) and Otaru, Yokohama, Cape Town and Inchon as gateway cities (Chapter 2). With Part II, I examined the characteristic of African cities ; general properties of cities in chapter 3, Nairobi in Chapter 4, Cape Town in Chapter 5, Mauritian cities in Chapter 6 and Antananarivo in Chapter 7. At last I analyzed the characteristic of Japanese cities with Part III, general properties and urban functions of Hokkaido cities in Chapter 8 and the structure of the downtown area within Japanese cities in Chapter 9.
