A Sociologial Study on the Restructuring of Localized Industries and the Transformation of Local Societies

该项目的目的是从社会学的角度调查当地制造业的实际情况和本地化行业的重组过程。本文以长野县为研究对象，对长野县的部分地区和部分特许经营产业进行了实地调研。第一次结构调整始于1940年左右的S，完成于1970年的S，产业结构的中轴线从丝绸产业转向机械产业。但1985年后，经济全球化和服务经济的发展改变了区域产业的社会基础。现在长野正在进行第二次重组，我们选择了苏和地区的精密机械行业作为当地产业第一次重组的最成功的例子。分析了苏瓦第一次改制的过程和苏瓦当地产业的实际情况。精密机械的成熟和新兴产业的成长需要，我们对丸古镇机械工业的小企业进行了研究。我们分析了这些企业的实际情况以及它们的生产和再生产过程。在经济高速增长的时代，像丸子这样的当地小镇的社会经济条件可以培养出许多小工业家。现在，产业结构和人力供应条件的转变，摧毁了他们再生产的社会基础。进行二次重组，最重要的问题是改造和更新这些基地。

The aim of the project is to investigate the actual conditions of local manufacturing industries and the process of restructurings of localized industries in a sociological perspective. We selected Nagano Prefecture as a research field and surveyed some areas and some licalized industries.Nagano Prefecture experienced restructuring of industries twice. First restructuring started around 1940's and completed 1970's. And the central axis of industrial structure shifted from silk industries to machine industries. But after 1985, globalization of economy and growth of service economy transformed the social base of regional industries. Now second restructuring of Nagano is going on.We selected precision machine industry of Suwa area as a most succesful example of first restructuring of local industry. The process of first restructuring and the actual conditions of Suwa's local industry analized. The precision machine matured and the growth of new industries needs.We researched small business of machine industry in Maruko Town. We analized the actual conditions of these firms and the process of production and reproduction of them. In the era of economic high-growth, the social and economic conditions of local small town like Maruko could produce many small indusrialists. Now transformation of industrial structure and conditions of man-power supply demolished the social bases of the reproduction of them. The most inportant problem to perform second restructuring is to remake and renew these bases.
