In this study, I propose that a local event can be considered as a “system for information transmission”. Such a system has three functions, namely, “information”, “production”, and “acceptability”. This study provides a conceptual diagram for depicting a local event as a system for information transmission. Though local events can be classified in different ways, they are represented using a specific image in the conceptual diagram. Furthermore, in order to understand the current local events, I compare these events to those that occurred during the Japanese bubble economy.
