The international organizations such as the World Bank which introduced the "Guidelines for the Roadside Stations" in 2004, are showing strong interest to the Japanese models. This article argues that the essence of Japan's experience in this field is not the particular patters or frameworks but the process of agglomeration and innovation. The process is observed in many traditional agro and manufacturing industries some from several hundreds years ago. The key message for the developing countries are; (1) The maximization of the utilization of local resources is quite important but should not exclude the possibility of building interregional production linkage, (2) The benefit from agglomeration should be fully captured, and(3) The globalization of the market will be the source of innovation and strengthening of competitiveness, therefore openness of the regional development is prerequisite.}, pages = {49--64}, title = {日本の地域開発の経験と開発途上国 : 開かれた地域開発を目指してメッセージとして何を伝えるか}, volume = {18}, year = {} }
