Description

Explore a fresh perspective on Japanese governance with Cities, Autonomy, and Decentralization in Japan. Part of the Routledge Contemporary Japan Series, this book moves beyond traditional political analysis by applying urban studies and planning lenses to the study of decentralization. This collection provides a detailed look at the past, present, and future of Japan's evolving local structures through various case studies. Readers will find insights into small-scale development and community-led initiatives, such as machizukuri (citizen participation). The essays also cover critical urban topics including architecture, urban form, disaster prevention, and the conservation of historical monuments. As new trends emerge following the bursting of the Japanese economic bubble, this book offers a timely look at how cities are reshaping themselves. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals interested in urban planning, social history, and the changing landscape of Japanese local autonomy.
