This study attempts to clear the relationship between deindustrialization and employment. In this essay deindustrialization is defined as the widespread, systematic disinvestment in the nation's domestic productive capacity. In order to redress imbalance and avoid frictions of trade, leading Japanese industries have invested abroad, transferring their production plants from Japan, to the United States, Europe and Southeast Asia. As an example, Japanese automobile manufactures have established seven production bases in the United States, producing over 2 million automobiles a year. As a result, exports to the United States and domestic production levels decrease, and unemployment increases. This "hollowing" of industry, is in a sense, the "export of our domestic employment", but we must endure, as a natural result of its current industrial structure. In order to ease Japan's transition to the 21st century, our government and industries, must align with the course of this industrial development, while striving to maintain full domestic employment.
