This research report consists of four parts. Part I is "problematic and hypothesis". This part theoretically examines the recent increase and historical formation of small and medium-sized firms and their subcontracting relations in a perspective of typology of capitalist development. It is suggested that subcontracting relations in Japan were ex-firm extensions of industrial relations in "parent" firms, which have consisted of precapitalist relations, through spinoffs primarily in the face of industrial conflicts, and that industrial relations in subcontracting firms have also consisted of precapitalist relations. This process is defined informalization. Part II is "Objects and Background". This part introduces Hitachi Administrative Division of Hitachi Ltd., which is one of research objects, and its subcontracting firms and their association. And this part analyses the formation of subcontracting relations in relation to industrial conflict of Hitachi Ltd. in 1950. As a result, the hypothesis of this research is approximately validated. Part III is "Realities and Changes". This part primarily examines recent subcontracting relations of Hitachi Administrative Division and their changes in relation to informalization by means of interviews. Part IV is "Subjects and Prospects". This part tries to formalize a typology of subcontracting relations in order to compare Hitachi with other cases. And the prospects of Hitachi district is examined.

本研究报告由四个部分组成。第一部分是“问题与假设”。这部分从资本主义发展类型学的角度，从理论上考察了中小企业及其分包关系的近代增长和历史形成。有人认为，日本的分包关系是“母”公司中劳资关系的前企业延伸，其中包括前资本主义关系，主要是在面对劳资冲突时通过分拆，而分包公司中的劳资关系也包括前资本主义关系。这个过程被定义为信息化。第二部分是“对象和背景”。本部分介绍了研究对象之一的日立制作所株式会社日立管理部门及其分包企业及其协会。该部分分析了1950年日立公司劳资冲突中转包关系的形成，大致验证了本研究的假设。第三部分是“现实与变化”。本部分主要通过访谈的方式考察日立行政本部近期的分包关系及其与信息化相关的变化。第四部分是“课题与展望”。这部分试图将分包关系形式化，以便将日立与其他案例进行比较。并对日立地区的前景进行了探讨。
