Events and processes surrounding the changeover from old to new higher education system during the allied occupation of Japan, especially the establishment of the new 79 central state universities, have been drawing the attention of researchers in educational history for a long time. While the decision-making process at the center (between the Ministry of Education and CIE) has recently been clarified to great detail, local actors, particularly those at the education institutions themselves, have frequently been overlooked. The integration of Akita Mining College and the prefecture's teacher training schools into Akita University serves as an example of how varied the actors were that engaged into an open conflict over the shape of the new higher education system. A look at the implementation stage of the new policies shows that local actors (ranging from the school authorities over students to the prefecture's teachers'union) influenced the outcome of the overall political decision-making process to a great degree. With the use of a resource mobilization model, a detailed analysis of the Akita conflict leads to the conclusion that not only was the center able to push through certain policies only because elements accepting these existed in the periphery, but also did initiatives for these policies often originate in the locales in the first place.
