Abstract

An empirical investigation into the financing of urban development in Japan is undertaken. Following a description of governmental structure, regression and other analyses are presented based on data for 336 cities and 46 prefectures for 1960-1970. It is found that attempts to achieve vertical financial equity among regions and cities is partially achieved, as poor cities and prefectures benefit from central government tax and subsidy programs.
