Major Japanese enterprises during the period of Japanese rule have received considerable attention, such as the politically-connected Mitsui, Mitsubishi, and sugar companies, but also worth examination are the activities of other enterprises in many fields that had longterm cooperation with the Japanese government and played an important role in the colonial management. With their bases in Japan, these enterprises became a means for the Governor-General of Taiwan to follow a ”production and industry” policy. Kazimakumi is a good example of this top-to-bottom transplant policy. Kazimakumi's development in Taiwan reflected both the hopes of the colonial ruler and also the needs of Kazimakumi's enterprise management. Kazimakumi was able to use its access to technology, the particular opportunity, and its connections to join the big railroad construction projects in Taiwan, play an important role in the construction of infrastructure or so-called social capital, and profit from the combination of colonial management and enterprise management. The implementation of national policy had a great impact on the movement of capital in this period. This article concludes that the pattern of cooperation between enterprises and colonial government not only existed in the field of civil engineering, but was a structural aspect of other fields as well. |
