Abstract:
This article explores the relationship between colonial ideologies and urban planning in the context of the pre-war Japanese empire. It does so by examining the second largest city in what was Japan's first formal overseas colony of Taiwan. By exploring some of the key texts through which the city of Takao (Kaohsiung) was depicted and its future debated in the colonial era, the ways in which imperial ideologies, such as the ‘southern advance’ of the Japanese empire, influenced and were reflected in urban space will be considered.

Abstract:
The urban approach to urban planning during Japanese colonization (1910-1945) boils down to the dimension of colonial rule and exploitation of the Korean Peninsula. Japanese imperialism has left positive and negative aspects on cities on the Korean Peninsula. Positive aspects are the introduction of modern urban planning and the development of industrialization. In addition to the modernization and growth of the Korean economy, the development of urbanization also took place by establishing the so-called "North Korean city routes".

Both Taipei and Seoul underwent a process of colonization and modern urbanization during the early part of the 20th century, under Japanese rule. In both countries, urban-planning projects from the colonial period have had a great impact on recent urban changes. This comparative analysis aims to identify the characteristics of modern cities with Japanese colonial histories, focusing on the following three aspects: (1) Urban structure based on spatial distribution by ethnic group; (2) Japanese colonial urban planning; and (3) modern boulevards that convey the power and spectacle of a colonial c

Abstract:
Natural disasters have destroyed, in whole or in part, Japan’s cities on numerous occasions. Human action, whether internal warfare or the air raids of the Second World War, has been the cause of further devastation. But regardless of the origin of the destructive force, Japan has always rebuilt its cities, and usually with astonishing speed. This chapter argues that while urban disasters can bring about an opportunity for changes in the built environment, they do not appear to induce innovation per se. Many times, the Japanese rebuilt their cities much the same as they were before, innovating only slightly on building codes or urban form. At times of ongoing political, economic, and social transformation, however, the leadership sponsored urban change in the wake of destruction. These interventions, instead of responding to post-disaster conditions, were often pared-down versions of predisaster concepts, constrained by limited finances, the lack of appropriate planning tools, the strictures of land ownership, and the needs and desires of private initiatives that called for rapid reconstruction and the preservation of traditional urban form. Societal transformation by itself has promoted the large-scale demolition and urban transformation of Japanese cities far beyond the areas touched by natural or human-made disasters. Rapid industrialization, urbanization, modernization, andWesternization, following the Meiji restoration of 1868 and the establishment of modern Japan, in particular buffeted Japanese cities on a grand scale. The repeated destruction of the capital, Tokyo (or Edo, as the city was called until 1868), and its rapid reconstruction provide an especially compelling means to examine disaster and rebuilding in Japanese cities. A focus on Tokyo permits comparison of reconstruction following both sudden, natural destruction and human-inflicted attack, as well as analysis of urban change in the absence of disaster. Earthquakes rattle Japan regularly; typhoons are frequent visitors; and tidal waves as well as tsunami have wiped out many settlements along the coasts. Rivers are highly susceptible to flooding, and inundation along major rivers in Edo resulted in the affluent abandoning the lowlands to the poor and lower classes and building their villas on the highlands. Traditional Japanese architecture has responded to such threats in a variety of ways. Wood construction, for example, provides flexibility in the event of tremors, and heavy roofing helps to stabilize houses buffeted by typhoon-strength winds.

In the first decades of the twentieth century, Tsuen Wan began its transformation from an impoverished district of Hakka farming and fishing villages to one in which wage labour became available in infrastructure construction and small industry. After the Japanese occupation the area industrialized rapidly, attracting large numbers of immigrants from China. They adapted by forming associations, while the original people rented land and housing to the newcomers. The government initially was overwhelmed, but eventually began planning a ‘new town’, with the original inhabitants remaining in their villages, their rights protected in today’s post-industrial city.

Abstract:
The 1964 Tokyo Olympics left a legacy of economic development and increased interest in exercise participation in Japan. Evidence was starting to accumulate that physical activity was good for health, including prevention of non-communicable disease. Policies for physical activity promotion appeared around this time. Currently, physical activity levels are higher among Japanese adults than those from other countries. An ecological finding indicates that the inequality was inversely correlated with country levels of physical activity. The activity-friendly neighbourhood environments of Japanese cities provide equal opportunities for walking in daily life for the general population. A well-designed school education system has contributed to enhancing physical activity and reducing its inequality. However, recent changes in city planning in Japan have promoted a car-dependent society. Consequently, Japanese physical activity has decreased in the last few decades. Now, policy (Health Japan 21) includes a socio-environmental approach which aims to reverse decreasing activity levels. The 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games have the potential to reshape social trends in sport and exercise participation. In super-ageing societies, physical activity will play an important role in reducing the burden of age-related problems such as functional decline.

Upon the cancellation of the China portion of the proposed project, the organizers of Bernstein’s Asia tour had to quickly come up with an alternative plan. The city of Sapporo in Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido emerged as a possible site, and the organizers decided to create a music festival in which Bernstein would work with young musicians from the Pacific Rim region akin to the Tanglewood Festival to which he had long dedicated himself. Kunihiko Hashimoto was brought in from Sydney to help prepare for the planning of what came to be named the Pacific Music Festival (PMF). Despite the initial hesitancy of the city officials and much uncertainty during the preparation process, Bernstein arrived in Sapporo in June 1990 for the opening of the PMF.

Abstract:
This chapter recounts the spring of 1920, when three of Wall Street's top bankers—Thomas W. Lamont of J.P. Morgan &amp; Company, Frank A. Vanderlip of National City Bank, and Benjamin Strong of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York—made their own separate visits to Japan, which had suddenly emerged as a new financial power. These bankers, all ambitious to build a new world more open to American business, had already crossed paths the year before in London and Paris, where they were involved in planning postwar European affairs. Their Tokyo tour of 1920 was thus a follow-on to a European tour in 1919. Wall Street financiers subsequently became key actors in shaping US-Japan relations during the decade of the 1920s. Financially speaking, this was the beginning of Japan's first “American” age. However, this era ended abruptly and violently in the autumn and winter of 1931–32.

When people talk about the Metropolitan Area (MA), they mean differently in different parts of the world with different contexts. Based on its spatial extent, internal structure, socio-economic function, and network characteristics, an MA can refer to various entities from a metropolis to a Megacity-region. In an effort to clarify the MA concept, we review the origin of the MA concept and its development in various parts of the world, especially the United States, Japan and China, so as to propose a spectrum of MAs, and their relationship with specific human and natural geographical contexts.
