Establishment of Colleges and Local Government-with Refernce to Finance

本研究历时2年，旨在从财政角度考察地方政府设立高校的情况。很多没有大学的地方自治团体为了满足当地高中生升学的愿望，为当地居民提供终身学习的机会，激活地区活力，都希望建立自己的大学或邀请私立或国立大学。在地方自治团体中，最常见的是通过公私合作的方式邀请私立大学。但是，地方自治团体的财政负担过重、居民的反对情绪等问题十分严重。由地方政府建立自己的公立大学是一种最受欢迎的大学方式。由几个城镇组成的地方行政联合会创办高校的新途径正在出现。但是，地方公立高校也存在着资金不足、财务运作方式复杂等问题（地方行政社团尤为突出）。综上所述，财政问题是地方政府办大学的重要因素。

This stusy conducted for 2 years aimed to investigate the establishment of college in the local government from the financial point of view. Many local governments in which there have been no colleges so far are hoping to establish their own colleges or invite private/national colleges/universities for the purpose of meeting their local high school students'desires to advance to colleges, providing the life-long learning opportunities for their local residents and of activating the local areas.The most frequently way of having colleges for local government has been to invite private colleges under the public/private cooperation method. However, there are serious questions to this methode such as financial overburden on the part of local government and the local residents feeling againt the policy. The establishment of their own public college by local government is a mostly desired way of having college. New way of establishing colleges by local admistrative association comprising several cities and town are emerging. But, when it comes to local public colleges, there are also financial problems such as lack of sufficient funds and the complicated ways of financilal operation (especially in local admistrative association). In conclusion, financial problems are found essential factors for having colleges for local government.
