Abstract:
Today, many villages in Japan are rapidly declining as a result of the policy of the Japanese government aiming at the growth of monopoly capital.
Shimo-Ono is one of such villages, with 184 houses and 731 inhabitants. We would report the progress of the regional examinations carried out in this village for these nine years and discuss about the necessity of the communal system of health protection, the actual state of health destruction and the countermeasures to be taken against this, and the problems imposed upon future regional examinations.
