Abstract

<p>This paper empirically surveys the modern fishery infrastructure of Tokyo by using fishery freight and its concerned freight to prove the economic development of Tokyo, which is fundamentally based on the theory of Kindleberger and Rosenstein-Rodan. In particular, it is needed to understand that Tokyo was the ‘Hub-and-Spoke’ (HS) metropolis and now it is also the main HS. With the support of geographical concentration concept, the big push theory addressed by Rosentein-Rodan can be proved with the aspect of fishery infrastructure whose theory is about “Indivisibility of Production Function and Demand”, and “the supply of savings”. The big push theory in this paper can be explained with the result of the VAR test of fishery infrastructure, which shows that the river infrastructure gives impact to the land infrastructure in the long-term. In particular in the regression test result, the freight of processed products has positive influence on the fishery freight, which means that those facts satisfy the fundamental theory of big push such as the indivisibility in the production function and the indivisibility of demand.</p>
