Abstract

This article gives brief account of the background and problems of the “National Comprehensive Development Plan” which was officially adopted by the Government in October 1962. The preparation of such a plan was already stipulated in the Comprehensive Land Development Act enacted in May 1950, but it took more than ten years before the finalization of the plan chiefly because of the rapid changes in the fundamental conditions of the Japanese economy.The new Plan is supposed to answer the question of (a) redevelopment of overcongested areas, (b) preparation of new industrial areas and (c) reduction of economic differencials among different parts of the country.
