  • Social Protest in Imperial Japan
    IDENTIFYING THE “PEOPLE” Who were these rioters or protestors? The visual record of The Tokyo Riot Graphic not only confirms what we learn from other sources. In two important ways relating to class and to gender, it extends our understanding. Arrest and trial records show the participants, or at least those targeted by the police and the prosecutor, to be quite diverse in occupation and social class.

Wage labor, broadly defined, was a major element in the crowd, with artisans a leading component in the 1905 (and again in 1906) riots, and factory labor more prominent by 1918.

    Public Ecologies of Art The Urban Redevelopment Policy in Tokyo: Case Studies of Roppongi Hills and Tokyo Midtown Projects Tong Suk Chong INTRODUCTION As a country with long historical development, Japan has her own urban renewal policy. Urban renewal is generally classified into three categories: redevelopment, rehabilitation and conservation (Sakamoto, 1998). Urban Redevelopment System is one of the most popular methods of urban renewal in Japan (Sakamoto, 1998). Since 1969, Japanese government has established her Urban Redevelopment System and passed the Urban Redevelopment Law. Redevelopment refers to the partial or total clearance of a large-scale physically or socially deteriorating area so as to redesign the area for environmental improvement and better social quality of life (Sakamoto, 1998). As redevelopment played an important role in urban renewal policy Japan, cases in this paper will be discussed from the perspective of urban redevelopment. Also, being the capital of Japan, Tokyo was one of the focuses for urban redevelopment. Hence, this paper will focus on examining how redevelopment projects work in Tokyo. URBAN REDEVELOPMENT POLICY IN JAPAN Organizational structure for managing urban redevelopment policy in Japan In May 2001, the Japanese national government set up the Urban Renaissance Headquarters chaired directly by the Prime Minister. The Urban Renaissance Headquarters was established within the Cabinet with the mission to promote 21st century projects for urban rebirth from various perspectives, including environmental and internationalization perspectives, and more effective land use.

From the 1960s to the 2000s, Roppongi referred to a nightlight district with numerous discotheques and bars, a place where foreigners mingled with rich young internationally minded Japanese, located in proximity of the central government district, international headquarters, several US military facilities, and the American embassy. Since the mid-2000s this image has come to change, as the Japanese construction state, a powerful coalition of the public and private sector has inserted new functions and established a new image for the district as an upscale shopping and business center.
