  • Strangers on a Commuter Train
    Alisa Freedman Strangers on a Commuter Train Female Students and the Salaryman Who Watched Them in Tayama Katai's Shojo byo In the early twentieth century, there were several transformations in Tokyo urban space and in the lives of its inhabitants. Many of these new social and spatial move­ ments converged on the train. Throughout the Meiji period (1868-1912)1, a gro­ wing number of peopte moved to Tokyo from the countryside, and, by the first de­ cade of the twentieth century, the city population had exploded. However, in the years following ]apan's 1905 military victory over Russia, many families moved from the city to its surrounding countryside, seeking nature and tranquiHity away from the noise and crowds.2 The residents of these suburbs included the salaryman (sarariman), a worker who earned a monthly salary and was a member of the new middle dass which emerged with the financial growth and developing capitalist consumer economy at this time. Perhaps more in image than in reality, the sa­ laryman, his wife, and at least two children lived alongside upper-class families of high-ranking government officials, whose daughters often attended schoo'l in the center of Tokyo and commuted there by the expanding network of modern mass transportation. From the Meiji 30s, the last decade of the nineteenth century, the number of female students increased, and the image of the schoolgirl dressed in ha­ kuma, wearing hair ribbons, and traversing Tokyo or its suburbs on bicycle or by train proliferated in popular literature and mass media. 3 The rise of the suburbs, where the salarymen and female students resided, was facilitated by the develop­ ment of Tokyo's modern mass transportation network, especially the new electric trains, which were cleaner and quieter than steam locomotives.

  • The Histography of Eco City Tokyo
    Kimiko Nakayama The Histography of Eco City Tokyo A Neoliberal Sustainable Urban City? Master’s thesis in Global Environmental History 2 Abstract Nakayama, K. 2019. The historiography of Eco City Tokyo: A Neoliberal Sustainable Urban City? Uppsala, Department of Archaeology and Ancient History. Trend of Sustainability is applied to city planning and try to achieve the sustainable development of a city and a town that is generous to people, environment and vitalise the economy at the same time. Initiatives for sustainable city planning in Japan is organized by the national Government, so called, FutureCity Initiative. This initiative enables to local city and representative to participate and act for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) within a city and aim sustainable development. Chiyoda city is one of the cities elected as an Eco-Model City’s FutureCity project. One of their approaches is to cooperate with local businesses group in Otemachi, Marunouchi, Yurakucho district (OMY district) to solve the environmental and social issues and contribute for their city to be sustainable. This thesis focuses on this OMY district that support a huge part of Japanese economy and aim to be the world most sustainable urban city to lead a sustainable earth in the future. When business leaders become main actors of sustainable city making, their business and economic knowledge and the interest to sustainability would be combined and influence the definition and understanding of ‘sustainability.’ It is important to acknowledge that the process of meaning making for sustainability, from a business perspective in capitalism and neoliberal society, has been influenced by historical factors that human beings has been prioritising economic growth and ideology of capitalism and affect the environment and vice versa.

Be the first of your friends. 49 Tweet 579 Tokyo -- a city hard to describe. But we've given it a shot. By Steve Trautlein, Matt Alt, Hiroko Yoda, Melinda Joe, Andrew Szymanski and W. David Marx. 1. The world's most sophisticated railways With 13 subway lines and more than 100 surface routes run by Japan Railways and other private companies, Tokyo's railway system seems like it was designed to win world records. It's rare to find a location in the metropolitan area that can’t be reached with a train ride and a short walk. Now, if only the government could devise a way to keep middle-aged salarymen from groping women onboard. 2. Sky-high one-upmanship Tokyo Sky Tree. (Tim Hornyak/CNNGo) When officials in Tokyo learned that the new Guangzhou TV & Sightseeing Tower in China would be 610 meters tall -- the same height that was planned for Tokyo Sky Tree, then under construction -- they did what any rational person would do: They added 24 meters to the top of Sky Tree to preserve its claim as the world’s tallest tower. Now complete and scheduled to open in May, the Guinness-certified structure features shops, restaurants and an observation deck that lets you see almost all the way to Guangzhou.
