Hardcover. This book presents multi-regional input-output tables from the prefectural level as well as non-survey methods for creating the tables that divide a prefecture into sub-regionsinto municipalities, for instance. In this book, the reader will find a survey of Japan's multilayered inputoutput tables and the research employing them, with an explanation of how to compile and apply a multi-regional inputoutput table for the countrys economy. Also included is research on currently important topics in municipal economies, carried out by municipality-based inputoutput analysis.Many inputoutput tables already have been compiled for each of the 47 prefectures of Japan as well as for major municipalities such as ordinance-designated cities, i.e., with populations greater than 500,000. The inputoutput table, or benchmark table, for the entire country, which is jointly compiled by 10 ministries and agencies including the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, provides the essential information for the compilation of regional input-output tables. In recent years, there has been a great deal of interest in the estimation of municipality-based inputoutput tables to help provide perspective for regional economic revitalization and evidence-based policymaking.This book, with its information on how to create and apply multiregional inputoutput tables, is useful for graduate students, researchers, and local government officials who are concerned with this field.

About this title

Synopsis

This book presents multi-regional input-output tables from the prefectural level as well as non-survey methods for creating the tables that divide a prefecture into sub-regions―into municipalities, for instance. In this book, the reader will find a survey of Japan's multilayered input–output tables and the research employing them, with an explanation of how to compile and apply a multi-regional input–output table for the country’s economy. Also included is research on currently important topics in municipal economies, carried out by municipality-based input–output analysis.

Many input–output tables already have been compiled for each of the 47 prefectures of Japan as well as for major municipalities such as ordinance-designated cities, i.e., with populations greater than 500,000. The input–output table, or “benchmark table”, for the entire country, which is jointly compiled by 10 ministries and agencies including the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, provides the essential information for the compilation of regional input-output tables. In recent years, there has been a great deal of interest in the estimation of municipality-based input–output tables to help provide perspective for regional economic revitalization and evidence-based policymaking.

This book, with its information on how to create and apply multiregional input–output tables, is useful for graduate students, researchers, and local government officials who are concerned with this field.
