This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Asian
studies, cultural industries, economic geography, and related areas
of study. It discusses the results of a microscopic survey focusing
on topics such as how animation studios form business relationships
and how workers gain skills in the industry. The methodology was
based on traditional Japanese economic geographical methods. The
study also examines macroscopic issues such as why industrial
agglomerations are formed in metropolises, why metropolises develop
mutual networks, and how a type of cultural product is created in
the metropolises. The methodology uses case studies of the
animation industries in Japan, South Korea, and China. The detailed
analysis covers the process of the industry s agglomeration within
the East Asian metropolises of Tokyo, Seoul, and Shanghai as well
as the division of labor among them. In addition, the transaction
relationships among animation studios are examined, together with
the promotion of the industry in the peripheral region of Okinawa,
Japan. Differences in work styles and output among these cities are
also examined. The research presented in this book contributes to
understanding the spatial structure and reality of creativity inan
innovative industry, particularly the East Asian content
industry."
