项目摘要

This research intends to analyse the relationships between globalisation and regionalism through the empirical investigation of the European Union (EU), and Japanese multinational enterprises (MNEs).One of the main results is to clarify the importance and the limit of the EU from the perspective of the economics. The EU is grasped as the regional authority providing the "formal institution" as the international public goods, which is under-supply in the circumstance of the world economy without world government. The chapter of the book edited by Nakamura is the concrete fruit of this way of analysis on the EU.Another important result is the publication of Japanese Multinationals in Europe, Edward Elgar, which analyses Japanese automotive and pharmaceutical MNEs in the EU. This book is highly appreciated both in abroad and Japan. This book is included in the series of New Horizons in International Business, edited by the former president of the International Business Academy, Professor … More Peter Buckley, Leeds University. In Japan, Japan Academy of International Business Studies selected this book as the Award of the Year.I presented at some conferences, and wrote papers. At the Annual Conference of the EU Studies Association (EUSA) -Japan, in Kyushu University, I presented a paper which investigated the relationships between the EU enlargement and the location of MNEs. This is received for the refereed paper of EU Studies in Japan, which will be published by EUSA, September, 2006. In addition, the EUSA requested me to suggest new direction for the future research on the EU, and the short essay, "Economics of the EU, Economics and the EU", is published in the EUSA Japan Newsletter. Along with them, I wrote a paper analyzing the impact of foreign direct investment within the EU on the trade of the related industries, as well as that of the industry in question itself, which is published in Economic Review, Shizuoka University.The international joint research is also another result of this year. I invited Dr.Odile E.M.Janne (University of London) with the grant from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science in August and September. We conducted the research on the location strategy of MNEs and the industrial cluster. As a part of the result, we gave a presentation at the first International Workshop of the Comparative Regionalism Project.Through the research by this grant, the gap of research on the regional economic integration and MNEs is identified. That is, the present literature including this generally looks at the investment into the integrated area, but give much less attention to the disinvestment. Thus, I am planning to examine the whole relationships between the regional integration and MNEs including the disinvestment strategy with the application to new grant starting from 2006 financial year.

本研究拟通过对欧盟（EU）和日本跨国企业（MNEs）的实证调查，分析全球化与地区主义之间的关系。主要结果之一是从全球化的角度阐明了欧盟的重要性和局限性。欧盟被理解为提供“正式制度”作为国际公共产品的地区性权威，而在没有世界政府的世界经济环境下，这种公共产品的供给不足。具体水果另一个重要成果是《日本跨国公司在欧洲》的出版，该书分析了日本在欧盟的汽车和制药跨国公司，这本书在国外和日本都受到高度评价。在国际商务学院前院长、利兹大学彼得·巴克利教授编辑的《国际商务新视野》系列丛书中，日本国际商务研究院将这本书选为年度奖。在一些会议上发表过，并写道在九州大学举行的日本欧盟研究协会（EUSA）年会上，我发表了一篇研究欧盟东扩与跨国企业选址之间关系的论文。日本，EUSA 将于 2006 年 9 月出版。此外，EUSA 要求我为未来研究欧盟提出新的方向，短文《欧盟的经济学、经济学与欧盟》，与它们一起发表在《EUSA Japan Newsletter》上的同时，我还撰写了一篇论文，分析了欧盟内部的外国直接投资对相关行业以及相关行业本身的贸易的影响，该论文发表在《经济评论》上。国际联合研究也是今年8月和9月我在日本学术振兴会的资助下邀请伦敦大学的Odile E.M.Janne博士进行的研究。跨国企业区位战略作为成果的一部分，我们在第一届比较区域主义项目国际研讨会上做了报告。通过这项资助的研究，确定了区域经济一体化和跨国公司的研究差距。一般来说，目前的文献关注的是对一体化领域的投资，但很少关注撤资。因此，我计划研究区域一体化与跨国企业之间的整体关系，包括撤资策略及其在新领域的应用。补助金起始于2006 财政年度。
