全球超级城VS小区域城市

通过迈克尔Chmura| November 19, 2009

我一直用画笔教授出席在新泻的JASVE会议，日本（见她的两个最近发表的博客 -＃1和＃2).The conference’s theme for this year was “New Venture Creation and Regional Economies (roughly translated),” and it is certainly a reflection of the long-held concerns about bi-polarization of economic development and activities between Tokyo, the mega city, and the rest of Japan.

作为教授刷指出，东京和新泻，会议的主办城市之间的物理距离，是没有太大 - 只有90-120分钟，这取决于你坐火车，300千米（或约190英里）。Interestingly, it is just about the distance between Boston and New York.On the scale of the United States, 190 miles is insignificant, but it is in the context of Japan because of its small physical profile (i.e., 190 miles in a small land vs.一个大的土地）。

距离可以在许多不同的方式来感觉，如果你住在东京和新泻参观，或副versa.It是“全球超级城市”和之间的区别“小区域城市”。这里是一个快速浏览一下两个县 on a few economic and demographic dimensions:

For many of us, the differences are ‘understandable.’Tokyo is a huge city, with many people and many businesses (big and small), inhabited by young people (relatively speaking, in Japanese standard!) and producing more goods and services.No big deal.

但它是一个大问题在Niigata.It的政策制定者和商业领袖一直是不可逆转的趋势，年轻人很快迁移到东京的，因为他们从高中毕业的大学和work.It已被证明几乎不可能说服人们回归金博宝官网 to Niigata once they go to Tokyo.The businesses are so concentrated in Tokyo – 18% of the GNP is made there with 75% more income than people in Niigata (note this is nominal per capita income difference).The population in Niigata is rapidly aging and faster than the average rate in Japan, which is quite fast to start with!Niigata can use any help and imagination.

但190英里距是there.For Niigatans，它是一个容易的距离去（仅90-120分钟到东京），但长途回来（从国民生产总值的18％，75％以上的收入）.Niigata，但是， is not without gems – real gems.It produces arguably the best and most premium rice crop in Japan.In Niigata, steamed rice actually sparkles in bowl.It also produces the best “sake” in Japan with 96 local breweries.It is a coastal city on the Sea of Japan, where quality and freshness of fish and sushi are better, and cheaper, than in Tokyo.

但新泻或许不应该“打”的距离。它将lose.Niigata应该选择一个战斗距离并不是一个相关variable.Maybe新泻应该看看海外市场 - 对“着想”和波光粼粼的大米export.Niigata也应该选择一个战斗在那里的距离适用于them.Tourism似乎有 under-conceived, under-developed and under-marketed.With fish, rice, sake and hot springs (I almost forgot), it’s a right distance from the Mega City.Does this take entrepreneurship?Marketing?金融？上述所有的？新泻没有时间去担心it.They需要予取予求。

在这次会议上，教授结束刷我每个接收瓶装清酒礼物先生Ikeda.He从他的朋友，一个酿酒厂老板确保这些珍贵的瓶子。Those bottles were picked from the brewery owner’s private collection, indeed.On our way back to the train station in the taxi cab, we realized that neither of us brought a large suitcase to pack the bottle in, for this trip was only 4-day long.That much of ‘liquid’ cannot be brought in as carry-on.Ah… We asked Mr.池田的同事探讨任何方式将它们运送到here.Such的距离也没什么大不了的。期。
