    Bull. Biogeogr. Soc. Japan VoI. 44 Dec. 20, 1989 Geographic Variation of Chromosomes in Sabacon makinoi Suzuki (Arachnida, Opiliones, Sabaconidae) Nobuo Tsurusaki Abstract. Chromosomes of Sabacon makinoi Suzuki were surveyed from five populations in Hokkaido and the northernmost part of Honshu, Japan. Chromosome numbers (2n=1O to 14) were found to vary among and sometimes within populations. Out-group comparison and the spatial distribution of the chromosome variants suggest that 2n=14 is the plesiomorphic state and the evolution proceeded with a decrease in the chromosome number. Centric fusion is considered the most important type of chromosome rearrangement responsible for the karyo­ typic change. Harvestmen of the family Sabaconidae are the details of the method, see Tsurusaki (l985a), represented by two genera and about 40 species, and Tsurusaki and Cokendolpher (in press).

  • Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University
    Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University Japan’s coal industry met its demise following a number of stages of restruc- turing under policies to change the structure of the energy industry. More than 200,000 coal mine workers were displaced from 1955 onward. The task of providing measures for displaced workers was recognized as an issue to be addressed at national level and such initiatives were considered to have con- siderable significance for the interests of society as a whole. This led to the development of substantial support systems of the kind not seen in other in- dustries, and comprehensive measures were adopted to cover not only reemployment, but also relocation, housing, and vocational training. However, fundamental issues faced by the unemployed were left unresolved. Formal support therefore in fact relied on the strength of individual companies and re- gional communities, and developed distinct characteristics. The insufficiencies of the formal support systems were compensated for by informal support based on personal relationships which were characteristic of the unique culture of coal mining. In particular, there was a strong sense of solidarity among fel- low mine workers. The support for displaced workers included not only finan- cial assistance, but also individual support, such as individual counselling and employment assistance provided by former coal mine employees acting as counselors. The labor unions played a central role in developing these measures. Such support was very strongly in tune with the workers’ culture generated within coal mining communities. I. Coal Policy and Measures for Displaced Workers in Japan The coal industry is a typical example of industrial restructuring in Japan.
