Kitakyushu - a case study
EX Corporation
This study comprises the experience of Japan in handling urban environmental issues, with special emphasis upon developments since the end of the second world war. Like all countries, Japan has its own unique characteristics, not least of which has been its phenomenal rate of economic growth in recent years. Nevertheless, its efforts to deal with urban environmental problems, may of which stem from the process of economic growth itself, may afford valuable lessons for cities in developing countries, not only in the Asia region, but throughout the world. The study is comprised of two main elements. The first one, contained in this report, consists of an overview of the experience of Japan, and draws general conclusions about the relevance of this experience for developing countries. More detailed treatment of the Japanese experience is contained in the second element of the study, which consists of three city case studies conducted in Kitakyusu, Osaka, and Yokohama, which are among the largest cities in Japan. The overall study draws upon, but is not restricted to, material from the city studies.
