明治初頭における東京の居住 : 近世近代移行期における江戸,東京の都市空間(その2)

Abstract

One of the most important particularities of the Japanese early modern ages' city, its city type is called Jokamachi, is that the utility of estate and the plan of building depended on the people's rank system of the Tokugawa Shogunate. So, after the Meiji Restoration, the remarkable trans-figuration and disorganization occured on the urban space of Tokyo. At the beginning of Meiji Era, although the parts of Tokyo, for example the form of dwelling, still had similarities with the Edo period's one, the city system which organized the parts had been gradually turning to another one.
