The study identifies the principal explanatory factors based on the small area data of e-Stat through GPS statistical software tools such as G-census and EvaCva, within a historical perspective. This historical knowledge helps in understanding the significance of the regional cultural heritage that remains in each municipality today. The book pays special attention to municipal variations within the same prefecture, presenting a completely unique approach from what other researchers have pursued. This volume studies two present-day prefectures along the ancient Tokaido for detailed analyses of the impacts of regional variations of population decline in Japan. They are Shizuoka Prefecture, made up of the former Tootoumi, Suruga, and Izu provinces, and Mie Prefecture, formed by the ancient provinces of Iga, Ise, Shima, and the eastern part of Kii as examples to show the impacts of municipal power on regional variations of shrinking Japan. The reasons for selecting these two prefectures of the ancient Tokaido are twofold. First, they are made up of a multiple number of the ancient provinces. Second, other prefectures that fall under the Tokaido have been studied in the previous works of the present author by adopting the same methods of analyses. Thus, by presenting unique analyses of regional variations on small municipal levels, with demographic variables, social indicators, and historical identities of municipalities in Shizuoka and Mie prefectures along the Tokaido, this book offers suggestions for effective regional policy to revitalize shrinking Japan to a sustainable one. 001454474 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001454474 651_0 $$aTōkaidō (Japan)$$xPopulation. 001454474 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001454474 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKUMAGAI, FUMIE.$$tSHRINKING JAPAN AND REGIONAL VARIATIONS.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER VERLAG, SINGAPOR, 2023$$z9811996083$$w(OCoLC)1356459180 001454474 830_0 $$aPopulation studies of Japan. 001454474 852__ $$bebk 001454474 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-9609-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001454474 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1454474$$pGLOBAL_SET 001454474 980__ $$aBIB 001454474 980__ $$aEBOOK 001454474 982__ $$aEbook 001454474 983__ $$aOnline 001454474 994__ $$a92$$bISE
