Title Alternative The Return of Japanese Evacuees to Seattle
FullText URL oer_031_4_253_275.pdf
Author Kurokawa, Katsutoshi|
Abstract By the order of the United States Government, Japanese and Japanese Americans were removed from the Pacific Coast early in the World War II. When the victory of allies became not so far away, therefore, the return of evacuated people to their former homes turned up as the problem. Many groups began their activities for and against the return of Japanese and Japanese Americans to the Pacific States. The purpose of this note is to analyze the activities of some of these organizations, especially in Seattle. One of the organizations that helped the peaceful return of Japanese to Seattle was the Civic Unity Committee. It was established in February 1944 by Seattle Mayor William F. Devin to alleviate the racial tensions. The Seattle Times, which had supported the removal of Japanese from the Seattle early in the war, cooperated the CUC and helped the return of Japanese in its editorials and articles. The articles that emphasized the activities of Nisei soldiers who were fighting in Europe were especially effective. Some labor unions and councils that affiliated to the American Federation of Labor opposed to the return of Japanese to Seattle. The antagonistic campaign by the Teamsters, which was led by Dave Beck, was especially serious and harmful for the successful return of Japanese. The unions and councils that belonged to the Congress of Industrial Organizations, on the other hand, supported the return ofJapanese to the Pacific Coast. The International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union, which was led by Harry Bridges, suspended the Stockton Unit of Local 6 when some leaders of the unit refused to work with returned Japanese.

Title Alternative The Ambiguity Incorporated into Marketing Activity
FullText URL oer_031_4_235_251.pdf
Author Kuriki, Kei|
Abstract From the beginning, marketing has been a convertor of social value systems. In this article, we investigate this feature of marketing. First we look back upon the appearance of Consumption Society. In 1920's Western countries were coverd with this new mode of consumption. At the same time, new-style sales activities came into existence. They were generically called marketing. Next, we attempt to grasp the relationship between these two simultaneous events. Marketing has a double relation to consumption. The principle of the marketing is paradoxical. Marketing is the activities that create objects to which the very activity should adapt.

Title Alternative Budgeting and Accounting for the Independent Administrative Corporations: Key Concepts and Issues
FullText URL oer_031_4_207_234.pdf
Author Yamamoto, Kiyoshi|
Abstract New semi-autonomus public bodies will be established in 2001. The bodies are called the Independent Administrative Corporations (IACs) which implement the public services in accordance with the middle term strategic plan. IACs have a discretionary power in allocating the operating fund into their operating activities, while the capital expenditures are basically regulated by their ministers in charge and the Finance Minister. Also their accountings adopt an accrual based standard. However, the finance guidelines for lACs have some significant problems. First, the financial behavior might be little affected through accrual accounting, since budgeting and allocation of resources are implemented in a cash based style as before. Second, their autonomy on operation would be largely restrained by the limitation in which they have not a mandate for capital expenditures; the quality of public services is influenced by capital expenditures or standards other than operating expenditures. In this regard, two possible alternatives in budgeting and accounting are indicated.

Title Alternative The Chinese Society under Jiang Zemin's Regime Observed through Popular Jingles
FullText URL oer_031_4_177_205.pdf
Author Oka, Masumi|
Abstract In my previous works, I tried to analyze the various phases of the Chinese society through six hundred popular jingles or "minyao" under the regime of Deng Xiaoping, and also made it clear that the unprecedented boom of popular jingles was caused by the expansion of social contradictions and partial acquiescence of jingles critical of the regime. In this study, I refer to when and how often special articles on popular jingles appeared in the monthly magazines of Hong-Kong, and try to clarify the interrelation between the special articles and the changes in China's open policies. Then, I selected about thirty popular jingles which are interesting and impressive. They show some of the typical social phenomena in the latter half of 1990's. They indicate that the corruption among high government officials is prevailing and that the sexual morality of the whole society is also on the brink of a crisis.

Author Tarnai, Yasuyuki|
Abstract "The Rate of School Attendance" is different between in a rural area and in an urban area from 1880 to 1905 in Japan. And "the Rate School Attendance in the urban area is reduced to decrease relatively, because poor students are piled in an urban city. We can understand reorganization of the community by observing changing rates of school attendance.

Title Alternative An Analysis of Gross Farm Household Income-1918-Shimane
FullText URL oer_031_4_057_083.pdf
Author Kimura, Sumako|
Abstract This paper aims to clarify the feature of the income of farms of Sanin district in 1910s. This is the premise work to clarify the whole structure of the farm household in those days. The crux of a matter exists in the difference of farmers' strata. The subject place of investigation is called kuroda-une, Ohba-son, Yatsuka-gun, Shimane-prefecture. The used materials is so-called Son-ze consisted of 25 farm households researched in 1918. The most income of the 25 farm households justly consists of self net agricultural income. That is gained by deducting the production cost and payable farm rents from gross agricultural income. Turning our attention to outer self agricultural income, this consists of mainly receivable farm rents and wages. Finally we get the disposable income by deducting the tax and repayable debt interest. We can conclude that there is a tremendous difference in disposable incomes among all farmers' strata.

Title Alternative The Development of the Middle-Scale Landlord Management in Modern Japan - A Case Study ofTakato Family in Okayama Prefecture -
FullText URL oer_031_4_027_056.pdf
Author Morimoto, Tatsuaki|
Abstract In this paper, the author attempts to clarify the development of middle-scale landlords in modern Japan, taking the Takato family as a case study. The Takato's accumulation ofland proceeded from the 1880s to 1890s and they were in possession of 20 cho in the 1890s. The main_ sources of Takato's income were farm rents, and interest loans on the security of Somen Noodles. In the 1890s, new industries developed in Japan. Takato had invested their surplus funds in stocks and gained dividends. Ikuzo Takato established Kamogata-Warehouse Bank with some middle-scale landlords in July 2, 1896 and had selected head of this bank. Then he borrowed money from the bank to invest in stocks. By the effective management, his profits increased. So, the investment in stocks soon exceeded the investment in land. Therefore, the income from dividends increased gradually in the early 1900s. Takato was elected as a member of the prefectural assembly from 1899 to 1911, and took the chair from 1907 to 1909. Further, he was a member of the House of Representatives from 1917 to 1920. During this period he had been to Korea as part of an inspection party. As a result of this experience, upon his return to Okayama, he and the other member formed a group to purchase land in Korea. Takato had continued to purchase land in Malaya and New York. The Takato family succeeded in accumulating property through such diversified management. Other middle-scale landlords failed in their business, and disposed of their land. It can be summarized as follows: many middle-scale landlords attempted to make different styles of diversified management of land, stocks, bank and other enterprises during the time of the Japanese Industrial Revolution. Consequently, some succeeded whereas others failed.

Title Alternative On the Stratification of Urban Residents and the Socio-Economic Position of the Commercial and Industrial Traders in Sakata, Yamagata Prefecture, in the Later Meiji Era
FullText URL oer_031_4_001_026.pdf
Author Kasai, Yamato|
Abstract Taking all things into consideration as to the materials of occupation, tax, income and holdings of the tenant land, it is possible to perceive several strata of society in Sakata. Namely, the most upper stratum consists of a few who earn very large income from the tenant land and interests. The second stratum consists of many commercial and industrial traders and others who earn income from the tenant land is often larger than trade. The third stratum consists of a large number of traders and others who their mean derives more or less from income of the tenant land. The next stratum consists of a great number oftraders in very small business and others. The lowest stratum consists of a great many residents with no sure means ofliving, and forms the base ofthe stratified and pyramidal organization. In the later Meiji Era, Sakata was already not a city which was simply composed ofthe income of trades, but the city that depends chiefly on enormous wealth from the tenant land and interests. Sakata turned from a commercial city to a so-called parastic city. This was the important point that could recover from the destructive earthquake of 1894, and could fend off severe blows on the transit business of Sakata owing to the construction of railroad from 1899. The nature of parastic moneymaking, the higher of strata he is, the more he depends, took simultaneously upon itself the responsibility to check the development of Sakata. The nature of Sakata as a city is focused on the fact that the accumulated vast capital doesn't apply toward the industrial capital and the social capital.

Title Alternative The Chinese Society Observed through Abbreviations with Numerals - from BANYUETAN in 1999 -
FullText URL oer_031_3_173_194.pdf
Author Oka, Masumi|
Abstract Abbreviations involving numerals occupy only 10 to 20% of all abbreviated words. This is why no preceding studies focused on abbreviations with numerals have been made. A series of studies by Oka, Oka [1998a, 1998b, 1999a, 1999b, 1999c, 1999d], already revealed their features. In this study, I will clarify, through abbreviations with numerals, the phase of Chinese society in 1999. When President Lee Teng-hui expressed his opinion on China in his book published in May, 1999 that China should be divided into seven states, Beijing got angry and started to attack his "qi kuai lun" or "sevenstate theory". In July President Lee also made public his provocative theory that the relationships between Taiwan and Mainland are "state-to-state". This again invited rage among the leaders of China, because they believe that. Taiwan is indivisible part of China's territory. Beijing severely criticizes Lee's idea as "liang guo lun" or a "two-state theory". A newly created abbreviation, "san bian" (three at the same time) for example, shows us that corner-cutting and sloppy construction is prevailing all over the country. An increasing number of lay-off workers from state enterprises became a great social problem, and many retraining service centers have been opened, and they offer "yi san yi" (one-three-one) services to help jobless people get employed with new skills.

Title Alternative Nonlinear Generalizations of Tucker's Theorem on Inequality Systems
FullText URL oer_031_3_163_171.pdf
Author Fujimoto, Takao| Ishiyama, Ken-ichi|
Abstract This note is to prove Tucker's theorem on linear inequalities based on the proof method of minimax theorems which uses Kakutani's fixed point theorem. One device is necessary to convert the minimax theorems to Tucker's formulation. This is a slight restriction on the image sets when creating a set-valued map. We also present nonlinear generalizations of Tucker's theorem employing the same method. All we need is that the set of variable values for which an objective function attains its maximum is convex. This objective function is a convex combination of functions. We also present a proof of the fact that a local characterization of inequality systems, when a given mapping is differentiable, can be made global provided the mapping is concave.

Title Alternative Ambiguousness in Fashion : How Should We Describe Fashion?
FullText URL oer_031_3_113_135.pdf
Author Kuriki, Kei|
Abstract In this paper we consider ambiguous character of the fashion.Change is the essential of the fashion. But for people who are now in a fashion movement, fasion is not a faint value. Fashion is a change but a style about which many people are enthusiastic. The difference between a viewpoint in a fashion and a viewpoint out of a fashion divides the views on a fashion. This ambiguity has confused a series of attempts to describe a fashion. We are apt to watch one side of a fashion. But we should try to discuss and describe both reliability and unreliability of the fashion.

Title Alternative The Japanese Companies' Problems in Global Competitions
FullText URL oer_031_3_087_112.pdf
Author Tomae, Hisao|
Abstract Japanese companies that practice the Japanese style management have pursued scale merit profits by mass production of stand-alone goods and had stronger competitiveness than US companies in '80 s. US companies, especially, cannot follow the overlapping development practicing which the Japanese companies have started. In '90 s, however, US companies have begun the overlapping development practicing by using telecommunication and information technology, and furthermore they do it interorganizationally among firms. As the results, US firms have stronger competitiveness than Japanese firms in the high-tech fields of system goods industries. Japanese companies have to be divided into two groups. One is stand-alone goods industries in which they operate mass production as before. Another is system goods industries in which they must unlearn the past success experiences and have to promote new innovation system. At the same time, they need to change the strategy in global business in the case that they belong to system goods industries. In Global Industries, Bartlett and Ghoshal insist on the 'transnational solution', but it should be noted that their theory is based on the study of stand-alone goods industries. We believe that the virtual corporation has more competitiveness than the transnational organization in system goods industries.

Title Alternative An Evaluation for Tenant Benefits in Public Housing: A Case of Okayama City
FullText URL oer_031_3_035_064.pdf
Author Nakamura, Ryohei| Morita, Manabu|
Abstract In this paper we estimate the tenant benefits in public rental housing supplied by local government on the basis of the data for private housing as well as public housing. In the estimation we specify a Cobb-Douglas utility function defined by housing attributes and other goods, and present a new estimation form of Hicks equivalent variation taking into account implicit marginal prices of public housing. Our work recognizes that the unit cost of housing is different between private and public housings, which is not identified by previous studies. The proposed procedure in this paper requires the estimation of implicit marginal prices of public housing attributes and private housing attributes. We further analyze the relationship between benefits of public housing and subsidy for rent, defined as the difference between the market value of public housing and rent of public housing, and examine the distribution ofthe benefits by household characteristics. This study finds that the calculated benefits from the public housing were 10.0 percent of monthly income, and evidence that benefits are related to income. Our results provide the effectiveness of public rental housing for the lower income households.
