THE ECONOMICS OF HOUSING IN TANGE LAB REPRODUCTIVE AND STANDARD COST OF LIVING UNDER GENERAL MOBILIZATION

Abstract

This paper shows the concept of the economics of housing in Tange lab. Uzo Nishiyama, who studied public housing project under general mobilization, discussed "conceptive standard cost of living". This idea had been based on housing model for labors (nLDK) and minimum standard cost of living. But Kenzo Tange proposed "realistic standard cost of living", which had been based on wealthy person and corresponded to price variation. Tange emphasized the impact of housing industry to economics in Japan, and considered the residence the base of recreation. His idea matched System linkage of Talcott Parsons, and developed the standard residence of Japan into national land planning.
