    Purpose This study aims to focus on the influence of industrial structure changes, which is the fundamental idea of the Kuznets hypothesis, especially the service–knowledge structural change, on income inequality. Design/methodology/approach This analysis uses the interaction term is that industrial structure changes multiplied by period dummy, this study indicates the effect of industrial structure changes on inequality from the 1970s. Using this method, this study reveals the impact of transitions in industrial structure, from agriculture to knowledge, on inequality. Findings Empirical analysis reveals a Kuznets curve relationship between income inequality and the agriculture–manufacturing structural change before the 1970s. From the 1980s to the 2000s, “The Great U-Turn,” which refers to events that expanded economic inequalities again, is observed in the relationship between inequality and the manufacturing–service structural change. Moreover, the service–knowledge structural change effect on inequality after the 2010s, through the Kuznets curve relationship. Therefore, this study confirms the Kuznets hypothesis is not a thing of the past hypothesis. Originality/value This study shows why income inequality in organisation for economic co-operation and development (OECD) countries has continued to increase in these days. Specifically, this study focuses on the impact of industrial structure changes and long-term trends, which has not been fully discussed in recent studies. The authors perform empirical analysis based on the relationship between these changes and inequality in developed countries. In addition, by setting a period dummy variable every decade, this study visualizes the transition of industrial structure changes in OECD clearly.

    In Japan mountainous areas’ population aging is more pronounced than in urban areas. Therefore, supporting community sustainability through health maintenance is critical. This study examines whether participating in community events leads to subjective health. We focused on the Yamanouchi area of Yumesaki-cho, Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, which is mountainous area and where population aging and depopulation is serious. With the theme of “town development for longevity and health,” multiple universities are participating in practical research projects in this area, such as a new health checkup, “Health Checkup Project through adding points to Goodness in Daily Life.” We hypothesized that joining community events actively and concerning to have connections with people outside their area, such as university students, lead good health. In 2019 and 2021, we conducted questionnaire surveys targeting all households in the Yamanouchi area and clarified the effects of joining community events and knowing local events related to university students on subjective health. We consider the endogeneity of variables related to events and conducted empirical analysis based on extended ordered probit model. Our empirical results supported our hypothesis. We found that inhabitants who join more community events or those who know of more events with university students tend to evaluate their health more favorably, and the effects were statistically significant. Thus, we deduce that actively planning community events will be beneficial for inhabitants’ health in the area. In addition, it is possible that university students’ participation in community development is effective for inhabitants’ health. In the mountainous areas where the population is decreasing, continuing community events could prove difficult, but it would be important to consider their impact on health and encourage various events as far as possible.

    This study aims to grasp the characteristics of 11 companies that embarked on agricultural business in Yabu, Hyogo, Japan, and to illuminate the requirements that enabled them to accumulate agricultural land. We analyze the relationship between type of business or scale of business and the size of cultivated area or intention to expand cultivated area in 11 companies interviewed in 2019. The results show that their selection of farm location was related to their potential to expand the scale of their farmlands after embarking on agricultural business. This study concludes that the requirement for a corporation's entry and expansion of their area of operation after entering is that their type of farming be paddy rice, and the requirement for further scaling up of large-scale farm operations is the cooperation of the residents in maintenance work such as levee weeding.

    The use of IT is one of the most important strategies for the future of agriculture. In Yabu City in Hyogo prefecture, not many, but some private farmers are interested in it. We analyze the determinants of IT use and willingness of farmers to pay for IT in agricultural management, using the farm household data of Yabu City. Our empirical results based on ordered probit and Tobit models find that the number of days engaged in agriculture, intention of machine renewal, having PCs, smartphones, and mobile phones, and agricultural income have positive correlations and older age has negative correlations with IT use and willingness to pay for IT. Farmers who know what companies of the National Strategic Special Zone in Yabu City do are willing to spend more money on IT. Moreover, a sense of fulfillment with agriculture increases IT use and willingness to pay for IT. However, feeling worth living does not do significantly.

    This study focuses on the relationship between age structure and trade openness. We hypothesise that a higher share of the working-age population in the total population increases trade openness, because the dependent population tends to spend more than the working-age population on non-tradable goods such as education and medical services. We estimate the effects of age structure on trade openness using panel data for 85 countries from 1991 to 2010. The empirical results show that the share of the working-age population has a positive effect on trade openness. An increase in the share of the working-age population is considered to be one factor that contributed to an increase in trade openness in the sample period.

    In this study, we test for convergence in financial development and economic growth in China's financial deepening reform process by using system GMM method. The results show strong evidence of the mutually interactive and systematic relationship between financial development and economic growth, and the system is in a condition of long-run divergence. The main cause of divergence in the system changed after 2008 from financial depression to asset price expansion. This study provides evidence that the government should intensify financial deepening reforms and pay attention to financial resource flows to prevent excessive asset price expansion.

    Nose town is located in Osaka city's suburbs, but most of the area is mountainous; agriculture is its main industry. Promoting rural-urban interchanges is one of the most important agendas in the town's development plan. We executed questionnaires among farmers in Nose town and empirically analyzed the characteristics of farmers who would like to be involved in rural-urban interchanges. According to our results, farmers who look forward to the institute for promoting agricultural land accumulation, those who are interested in local-branded crops, and those who often sell crops at the Roadside Station (Michi no Eki) are interested in rural-urban interchanges. Sale destinations other than the Roadside Station and basic farm characteristics such as size of farmland, age, share of nonagricultural income, and share of rented farmland were found to have no statistically significant effects on the motivation to get involved in rural-urban interchanges. It would be beneficial for highly motivated agricultural farmers to gather and discuss, in a comprehensive manner, various kinds of agricultural policy.

    China has experienced a dramatic demographic transition since the latter half of the twentieth century, and thus, assessing the global economic implications is an important issue. This article uses time-series data on China to estimate the determinants of gross domestic product (GDP) per capita. According to the results of the presented co-integration analysis, population has a significantly negative impact on GDP per capita, while savings rate, total factor productivity and degree of industrialization have significantly positive impacts on GDP per capita. These results suggest that the share of the working-age population relative to the total population does not have a strong influence on GDP per capita. Therefore, the contribution of the working-age population to economic growth might not be as large as previously assumed. It is also possible that an increase in savings, remarkable industrialization and rapid technological progress have all stimulated economic growth in China greatly. © 2013 Taylor and Francis.

    The purpose of this paper was to measure the technical efficiency of wheat in Japan using stochastic frontier analysis of samples from different prefectures during the period between 1987 and 2008, and to investigatewhether the technical efficiency of Japan's wheat production from these different regions converges.We found that the technical efficiency of wheat in Japan showed a tendency to decrease.Three kinds of panel unit root tests implied that technical efficiency tended to converge in each region.

    Countries throughout the world are experiencing changes in their population age structure, but they are particularly rapid in East Asia. During the last part of the 20th Century the region benefited from an increased concentration of population in the working ages. Population aging is now the increasing rapidly with potentially adverse economic effects. The evidence presented here shows that population aging can lead to a second demographic dividend because population aging may lead to rapid capital accumulation. This appears to have occurred in East Asia because public support systems for the elderly are smaller and because family support systems are in decline. © 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    This research analyzed the effects of demographic change on industrial structure in terms of capital accumulation, revealing that demographic change considerably affects capital accumulation, which plays an important role in transforming the industrial structure. We combined the overlapping generations model formulated by Kinugasa and Mason (2007) and the general equilibrium growth accounting model of Yamaguchi (1973, 1982, 2001)for simulating the effects of demographic change on agricultural and nonagricultural outputs, labor, and capital.The effect of demographic change,particularly changes in the number of children,adult longevity,and child survival rate,on capital growth was analyzed using the overlapping generations model. Further, we investigated the effect of capital growth on agricultural and non-agricultural outputs and inputs using the general equilibrium growth accounting model. The present study's simulation analysis conducted using Japanese data revealed that a rapid decline in the number of children and a rapid increase in adult longevity stimulated capital accumulation and increased the importance of nonagricultural constituents from the 1960s to the 1990s. Simulated capital growth not only increased non-agricultural output and capital to a greater extent than it did the corresponding agricultural constituents, and increased non-agricultural labor and decreased agricultural labor.In recent years,there has been a decrease in the working age population,which comprises people whose savings are normally higher than those of the other generations though the adult longevity in Japan had moderately increased ; hence,we cannot expect a rapid increase in aggregate capital in the future. Therefore, the advantages of the nonagricultural sector in Japan could disappear, and agriculture could become increasingly important in the near future.

    We analyze steady-state and out-of-steady-state effects of the transition in adult longevity on the national saving rate using historical data and international panel data. The rise in adult life expectancy has a large and statistically significant effect on aggregate saving. The effects have been especially pronounced in East Asia because its mortality transition was very rapid. Gains in life expectancy are much more important than declines in child dependency. Population aging may not lead to lower saving rates in the future if life expectancy and the duration of retirement continue to increase. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Using general equilibrium growth accounting and the overlapping generations model, they analyze the relationships between population, agriculture and the economy. The research results are unprecedented and show the effects of increased adult longevity on national savings and the effects of demographic change on the industrial structure the push-pull effects of technical change in agricultural and non-agricultural sectors and the positive effects of population on technical change and economic development.

    今年度は、新型コロナウイルスの流行に伴って、寿命や死亡率に関する意識がどう変化したのか、また、その変化が貯蓄行動にどう影響したかを明らかにするという目的を達成すべく、下記の件を検討した。まず、寿命の予測が変化した場合の人々の貯蓄行動への影響を理論的に検討した。個々人が予想する生存率を軸に、どのような貯蓄行動をするのか、寿命の不確実性を考慮した世代重複モデルを基礎に、心理学の要因を取り入れて検討する。基本的に、経済学のライフサイクル仮説(老後に備えるために、現役時代に貯蓄するという仮説)に基づいて考えたが、貯蓄の決定要因として、寿命予測、時間選好、子供の数、現在の所得と将来の期待所得、また、心理学的には、人は残された時間に限りがあると認識すると感情的満足を重視するようになるという理論(社会情動的選択性理論)を考慮した。その理論を軸に、オンラインのアンケートを準備した。アンケートは、日本の、自分または配偶者が働いている20-70代の男女に行う予定である。その中で、主観的な死亡率に関する情報を数種類尋ねることにしている。本研究は、主観的死亡率をアンケートで尋ねているところに特徴があり、他のアンケート調査では得られない情報である。また、副次的な研究として、予備調査に基づく計量分析を行い、国際会議、国内の学会で報告したが、学術誌に投稿の準備を進めている。さらに、新型コロナウイルス流行後の地域経済について、論文を投稿中である。また、新型コロナウイルスに関して、計量研究を行い、論文を公刊した。

    2018年度はアファール州で首都アジスアベバに近いアヲッシュ地域で現地調査を実施したが、2019年度はアジスアベバから北西500kmで同じアファール州の州都であるセメラ地域で現地調査を実施した。2018年度のアヲッシュ地域が国の首都に近いことから農畜産物の流通業の比重が高かったのに比べて、セメラ地域は牧畜中心の比重が高いが、以前に調査した北部ティグライ州のメケレに比べると貧困の度合いは深刻である。 鬼木は、エチオピアのティグライ地域において、確率的生産関数を推定し、植林に対する共有地配分政策の効果を評価した。その際、準実験方法を用いてこの計画への参加農民と非参加農民の間で農業生産の技術的効率性を比較し、共有地の配分が技術的効率性を改善すること、さらにこの計画は、土地を保全しながら農業所得を増大させうることを示した。従って、共有地の配分は、サハラ以南アフリカの山岳地域で持続可能な土地利用を推進することを明らかにした。 加賀爪は、ミャンマーの分析の他に、中国の3つの主要穀物生産州(山東省、湖南省、安徽省)の10県のデータを収集し、パネルデータによる固定効果モデルを分析した。その結果、農地規模拡大は単収を増加させないが、生産費を大きく引き下げ、穀物生産の単位利潤を増加させること、第2に、生産量と利潤に関しては、農地規模との関係で逆U字形を示すが、生産費との関係においてはU字形を示し、その転換点は1~1.333haであることを確認した。第3に、農地規模が単収と生産費に及ぼす逆比例の効果は時間的に漸減しつつあること、また費用効率性の優位性は徐々に低下していることを示した。 衣笠は、日本と中国に関して、自然災害が個人貯蓄率に及ぼす長期的影響および動学的効率性について計量的に分析し、さらに、国民の農村移住に関する決定要因についてアンケート調査を用いた実証分析を実施した。

    This study aims to investigate the possibility of increasing take-up rate by introducing a new scheme of CBHI including treatment of chronic diseases and medical service by pricvate clinic.For that purpose, we conducted a field survey to collect the data and information in rural Cambodia, and estimated willingness to pay for the new cheme by using latent class model and the cost to implementit. The results show that we can provide a sustainable CBHI scheme including treatment of chronic diseases, medical service of private clinic, and improvemet of insurance management.

    We analyzed how globalization and population aging affects agriculture and economy in East Asia, including Japan. First, according to simulation analysis using overlapping generations model and general equilibrium growth accounting model, we found that an increase in adult longevity has an important effect on saving rate and that demographic change influences agriculture and industrial structure. Next, we conducted empirical analysis using world panel data and found that age structure influence trade openness significantly. It is indicated that recent dramatic globalization in the world has been partly caused by an increase in share of working-age population in total population.

    By experimental economic analysis, it was clarified that farmer’s risk aversion level and loss aversion level in Loess Plateau area of Shaanxi Province, China, were estimated to be 0.19 and 2.52, lower than world level and determined by factors such as education level, distance from the prefectural office, age and cooperatives activities. By the fixed effect analysis of panel data model, it was pointed out that the farmers in Afar district, Ethiopia need to diversify their livestock management by dealing with honey, salt, forestry and hay/straw production with irrigation under the veterinary guidance in order to increase their incomes. By the anthropological field survey in Tigray district, Ethiopia, it was clarified that farmers have adapted their production and consumption patterns flexibly to fluctuation risk of natural grass vegetation and the milk products have strongly linked to the livings of rural people.

    First, the effects of two demographic dividends, which attract attentions of demographers, on saving and economic growth are analyzed theoretically and empirically. We found that second demographic dividend, namely, an increase in longevity, can have positive effects on economic growth in developed countries. Second, we conducted simulation analysis about the effect of demographic change on industrial structure, and it was suggested that the importance of agriculture can increase in the future in Japan. Third, we found that human capital is quite important for economic growth according to our empirical results using the data of China and Thailand.

    Trade liberalization brings benefits to all trade partners from the viewpoint of market economy. Judging from the viewpoint of environmental effects, developing countries suffer from the deterioration although they enjoy economic surplus to some extent. On the other hand, the developed countries enjoy both economic surplus and environmental improvements. Thus, the sustainability of developing countries will be deteriorated as trade liberalization progresses. As the leading case of environmental conservation policies, in this research, the EU environmental direct payment policy was evaluated and it was pointed out that there are several points to be improved.
