Japan’s Shrinking Regions

Researching Japan’s regional communities

Japan's Shrinking Regions is a research project led by Peter Matanle of Sheffield University and Anthony Rausch of Hirosaki University.

The blog on Japanese initiatives to tackle rural population decline is currently the only public material.

Access to the rest of the site -- PowerPoints and draft chapters -- is restricted to project members.

This site is hosted at Hitotsubashi University by Jonathan Lewis.
