1 / 6
The Annual Statistical Report of the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce for 1912 [and] 1921 [and] 1922.
A fascinating survival from the Taishō Democracy, a period of liberal reform and political renewal in Japan lasting from 1912 until 1926, which ultimately culminated in a series of economic crises that plunged the nation into a severe depression.
These reports by the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce, the oldest economic organisation in Japan, contain key financial, economic, and demographic data on the city for the years 1912, 1921 and 1922 respectively, including population estimates, price indexes, import and export values, average wage figures, transactions on the Tokyo Stock Exchange etc., presented in a series of 63 tables per report. A vital resource for students of Japanese economic history.
