Description
| By Takeshi Abe and Minoru Sawai The Osaka economy was severely damaged by the political, economic, and social turmoil at the end of the Edo period and the period of the Restoration, but from the mid-Meiji period onward, thanks to the activities of Tomoatsu Godai and others, the city grew to become known as the "Manchester of the East" and led the industrialization of Japan, mainly through cotton spinning and railroads, together with supporting trading companies and banks. It came to lead the way in Japan's industrialization. After World War I, the momentum of industrialization increased, and not only the textile industry but also the heavy and chemical industries and the general merchandise industry developed, and by the end of the Taisho era (1912-1926) and early Showa era (1926-1989), Osaka boasted of being the most industrial city in the country. In the wartime period, however, the weight of Osaka's economy, which was dominated by light industry and small and medium-sized enterprises, began to decline again, and by 1939 it had given up its position to Tokyo, from which point Osaka's "ground sinking" began to be discussed. This book introduces the history of Osaka's development and decline through color pages of valuable documents (such as advertisements for banks, cosmetics, and other companies at the time) from the collection of the Graduate School of Economics, Osaka University Museum of Science and Technology. |
