This paper aims to grasp the “markets” in postwar Tokyo in diachronic perspective. The previous studies have tended to deal “markets” as extraordinary spaces only in immediate postwar years. But this paper will try to deal them as ordinary spaces by clarification of the basis of their existence. Especially, I found the censuses about the “markets” which have not been known so much, and consider the similar commercial spaces in previous or next era such as stalls, retail markets, tenant buildings. This paper will reconsider the significances of “markets” through these works and the consideration of my former paper.
