  • 2009 Annual Report
    WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY RAILWAY JAPAN WEST Annual Report 2009 Ensuring Safety, Delivering Growth Annual Report 2009 WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY Printed in Japan West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) is one of the six passenger railway transport companies formed by the split-up and privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) in 1987. Its mainstay railway business operates a network of lines with a total route length of approximately 5,000 kilometers, extending through 18 prefectures that account for around one-fifth of Japan’s land area. Railway systems in Japan evolved as a natural consequence of the cities that formed through the accumulation of people in the limited number of plains throughout the country. Joined like links in a chain, the geographical distribution of these cities has created a solid demand base that accounts for one-fourth of all passenger volume in Japan. While railway operations remain the core of its business, JR-West also aims to make the most of the assets that are part of its network of stations and railways to develop its retail, real estate, and hotel businesses. Corporate Philosophy 1 We, being conscious of our responsibility for protecting 4 We, together with our Group companies, will consistently the truly precious lives of our customers, and incessantly improve our service quality by enhancing technology and acting on the basis of safety first, will build a railway that expertise through daily efforts and practices. assures our customers of its safety and reliability. 5 We, deepening mutual understanding and respecting each 2 We, with a central focus on railway business, will fulfill the individual, will strive to create a company at which employ- expectations of our customers, shareholders, employees, ees find job satisfaction and in which they take pride.

  • Esquisse on Location of Psychiatric Hospitals in Osaka Prefecture and the Image of the Boundary of Osaka City in the Formative Period of "Great Osaka"
    Intercultural Understanding, 2012, volume 2, pages 59-64 Esquisse on Location of Psychiatric Hospitals in Osaka Prefecture and the Image of the Boundary of Osaka City in the Formative Period of "Great Osaka" 1 Yusei Tazaki 1 Department of Architecture, Mukogawa Women’s University, Nishinomiya, Japan Corresponding author: Yusei Tazaki, Department of Architecture, Mukogawa Women’s University, 1-13 Tozaki-cho, Nishinomiya, Hyogo, 663-8121, Japan, E-mail: [email protected] Keywords: psychiatric hospital, location, boundary, Great Osaka, population, river, railway, Hedate. Abstract: After the Meiji restoration, Osaka developed radically to become "Great Osaka" at the beginning of the Showa Period. For about 65 years, Osaka City administratively enforced area extensions twice, but despite this the city became a disorderly sprawl, losing its own distinct image. In the same period, in Osaka Prefecture, some modern psychiatric hospitals were founded, but they were not located in Osaka City but rather in the surrounding rural districts. Formerly I surmised, through the investigation of Iwakura and Kuze in Kyoto, that such location on the boundaries of the cities has medical significance for mentally handicapped people. For the psychiatric hospitals, a definite distance from the busy city filled with various stresses is necessary, but simultaneously an assurance of intimate relationships with its parent city. In this esquisse, I study the locations of 18 psychiatric hospitals that were founded from Meiji 14 (1881) to Showa 15 (1940) to reflect the boundary of Osaka City in reference to some rivers and railways. The "Hedate" relationship that such rivers as the Yamato River represent seems to be one of the important factors when considering the location of psychiatric hospitals and the city boundary.
