カシニワ制度に基づくコミュニティガーデンにおける公共性の変化
Development process of publicness of a community garden established by the Kashiniwa program
Abstract: Parks established and maintained by the public sector have long been playing a major role in Japanese open space
plans. However, Japanese cities, not only in remote areas but in major urban regions, are now starting to shrink due to rapidly
aging and shrinking population, and under such circumstances provisional community gardens established and maintained by
local residents are becoming to play an indispensable role in maintaining public spheres in a local community. This study aims to
identify the development process of a community garden as a public sphere by having Jiyu Hiroba established by the Kashiniwa
program in Kashiwa City, Chiba prefecture, as a case study. Documents including site plans illustrated by residents and annual
management reports were collected, and then in-depth interviews were conducted by having neighborhood association members
as the subjects. As the result of literature and interview surveys it was identified that “publicness” of the community garden in
Jiyu Hiroba was gradually enhanced by aggregating plural “privatenesses” with occasional interventions by the public sector.
Community gardens with publicness, as a result of aggregated privatenesses, were understood as new public spheres suitable for
future shrinking cities in Japan.
