JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSWhen was the modernization of English boroughs and towns accomplished? They were, in the author's opinion, still under the control of semi-feudal or transitional local powers even at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. The traditional strata of free and unfree burgesses still survived, on the one hand, in boroughs incorporated before the Puritan Revolution. In some boroughs they could be seen distinctly and in others vaguely. The unfree were sometimes restrained in free trade. The incorporated boroughs were, in all respects, not modern local governments but machines to manage corporate properties. What was, on the other hand, the situation of such industrial "open towns" as Manchester and Birmingham? There was not any oligarchic power that was seen in the incorporated boroughs. There was, however, a more backward and more irrational power wielded by such a landlord as Sir Oswald Morsley in Manchester. Through the pre-capitalistic mechanism, he tried to exploit profit produced as a result of the progress in the capitalistic industry. He collected, for instance, Market toll customarily from both manufacturers and workers in Manchester by his seigniorial power. English boroughs were, without distinction between the incorporated boroughs and "open towns", under the rule of pre-capitalistic local powers at the latest of the early nineteenth century. It was the municipal incorporation movement that swept away the local powers, and the Municipal Corporations Act of 1835 was obtained as a result of the movement.View full abstractDownload PDF (1995K) -

JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSIt seems to be most suitable to the understanding of the structure of the modern American capitalism to regard the 1930's as its direct "starting point". And we tried to grasp the significance of the "New Deal"-the concentrated series of the economic policies in the 1930's. Up to the present it has been understood in general that the New Deal was one of the typical type of the state monopoly capitalism together with the "Nazis Regime". But this concept of the state monopoly capitalism has been inclined to be indifferent to the domestic and foreign class situation at that time. In addition, especially in Japan, the synthetic and accurate investigation of the New Deal has not yet been tried from the viewpoint of the economic history. Therefore it seems necessary for us to bring forward the various thoiretical and material issues in the economic history, and we must take a method that will base on and overcome such a viewpoint as the state monopoly capitalism. We tried to take the standpoint of the synthesis of economic policies and industrial structure. This study, standing on the above viewpoint, will give nothing but a hypothesis. We should, however, call attention to the following points. First, the farmer's movement of the Midelle West in the "Great Crash" played an important part in deciding the farm policies of the first New Deal period. Second, how the radical labor movement had resulted, which seemed almost to be led by the New Deal labor policy such as "Wagner Act." Third the historical and economic character of the Roosevelt administration and the economic effect of the New Deal policies as a whole, which has usually been called as the "pomp-priming policy".View full abstractDownload PDF (2991K) -

JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSThe reformation of Funai-Han government inaugurated in the thirteenth year of Tempo was led by Kyubei Hirose, a merchant of Hida. The basic policies of the reform were (1) the change of financial backers from Osaka merchants to Hida merchants, and (2) the maintenance of balanced budget on the basis of tax income. In order to achieve the purpose, the government adopted the fixed tax system to stabilize the income, and strengthened the government monopoly of straw mat, a special product of the Bungo district, to increase the income. In this paper, we will examine the relationship between the development of the governmental reform and the changes of the marketing system of the straw mat which was introduced in the Kanbun period. How did the government monopolize the marketing of the mat, and how did it work? The changes of the marketing system of the straw mat can be divided into three periods: (1) the period before the establishment of the straw mat exchange in the first year of Bunka; (2) the period from the establishment of the exchange to the first unsuccessful reform led by Kyubei Hirose in the eleventh year of Tempo; and (3) the period from the failure of the first reform to the success of the second reform (the thirteenth year of Tempo) when the monoply was established. During the third period, the direct shipment of straw mat to Edo was accomplished instead of shipment through Osaka, with the new move taken by Osaka merchants in the fourth year of Koka. By the direct shipment of the straw mat, the intrusion of Osaka merchants came to an end, and the financial independence from Osaka merchants intended by Hirose was achieved. However, Hiroses's reform was quite reactionary. He tried to reestablish the economy of Han government, and the income from the monopoly of the starw mat was used to pay back the government debt. Since Hida merchants, represented by Kyubei Hirose, were depending on the feudal system, the reform backed by these merchants had its limitaion.View full abstractDownload PDF (2447K) -
