JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSIn recent years, the researches on "the Sino-Japanese economic cooperation in North China" in the 1930s have been advanced remarkably, But, these researches have inclined to emphasize the Japanese political details, on the one hand and to neglect the Chinese counterplot, on the other hand. In this paper, by attaching importance to Chinese counterplot toward the Japanese policy, the author attempted to elucidate the reason why Japanese economic advance into North China had not been realized. This paper consists of five sectiions. The first section deals with the purpose of Japanese economic advance into North China, the most important of which was to acquire natural resources -mainly iron and steel- and to construct railway. The second section makes a survey of North China's circumstances in the late 1910s and 1920s. This region had been paid attention by Japanese, who had tried to utilize these exploitation as a means to expand their sphere of influence. In the third section, the author examined the Japanese policy toward America and Europe. In spite of their appeasement policy, the Japanese were reluctant to cooperate with foreign capitals in North China. The forth section deals with "Hopei-Chahar Political Council" -established in 1935- and the fifth section reveals the relations with the Nanking Government. No matter how Nanking Government sought to cooperate with Japan, the Japanese avoided negotiating with them and put pressure on "Hopei-Chahar political Council". Eventually, Japanese object of "Economic Cooperation" was to separate North China from the Nanking Government, and owing to these policy, anti-Japanese movement and centralization in North China prevented her from acquiring natural resources.View full abstractDownload PDF (3132K) -

JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSIn the early part of 1930s all the world fell into the Great Depression. But Japan got out of the depression quickly after the gold embargo of 1931 and achieved high growth rates. Such high growth mainly depended on a large increase in exports. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the canning industry as an example of the most growing export industries. The canned items which showed a remarkable increase in production especially in the 1930s were those of salmon, tomato sardine, tuna and mandarin-orange. Canned salmon was one of the oldest products in the history of Japanese canning industry, while canned tomato sardine, tuna and mandarin-orange were new products developed in the 1920s. The increase in canned salmon production was brought about by the development of new fishing ground in the northern part of the Kuril Islands and by the progress of canning factory ship of salmon. In the cases of canned tomato sardine, tuna and mandarin-orange, the production increase owed to a rapid expansion of overseas outlets encouraged by a fall in the yen exchange rate after the gold embargo. In this connection it is recalled that fisheries experimental stations played some important roles in the growth of the Japanese canning industry, especially in developing new canned products, improving its quality and bringing up small-medium packers.View full abstractDownload PDF (2826K) -

JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSThe topic of industrial arbitration and conciliation has long been discussed in the context of the voluntaristic assumption on collective labour-capital relations. The history of arbitration and conciliation in British industrial relations has been treated as a typical case of the autonomous organization of industrial relations. Much focus has been brought into the impact of the autonomous development of arbitration and conciliation within some industries and trades upon the turnabout in the government policy under the Conciliation Act of 1896, from compulsory arbitration using the power of the justice of the peace to noncompulsory or voluntaristic way of dealings of industrial disputes. This kind of thesis, however, is not constructed on the full empirical research on the actual constitutions and works of the established boards. Even the Fifth and Final Report of the Royal Commission on Labour (1894) suggests that, while the practice of arbitration and conciliation spread during the 1860s-1880s within some well-organised industries and trade like coal, iron and steel, hosiery,etc., it can not be said that the state of things continued well into the 1890s. This article is, therefore, to examine what was the actual phase of industrial arbitration and conciliation with reference to the coal industry. Followings are the main points this article will suggest; (1) Although the several well-organised districts established 'joint boards' or 'joint committees' in the mid-187Qs in order to deal with 'local disputes' (disputes within a firm or coriery), disputes involving 'general principle' which might affect all or parts of a district could not be treated through 'joint boards'. Even these boards had ceased to operate by the end of 1880s because of their oppressive function to the wage increase demands from the workmen's side. (2) As far as the disputes of 'general principle' are concerned, the system of coal price sliding scale was widely introduced in the industry. Sliding scales were introduced by mutual agreements in the late 1870s. However, most of the sliding scales were abolished a decade later for the rise of the 'living wage' movement which criticized an automatical increase or reduction of wage through the market mechanism. (3) Both sides in the districts where any kind of arbitration and conciliation did not exist were, generally speaking, in favour of the state intervention to encourage the peaceful settlement of disputes. (4) Therefore, it can be said that, at the time of the enactment of the Conciliation Act, the state's involvement into industrial relations was inevitable both to settle the industrial conflicts which failed to conclude by the mutual efforts, and to encourage the establishment in each district of a well organised collective bargaining system for the preventation of conflicts.View full abstractDownload PDF (2027K) -
