This paper includes postwar developments of human geographical studies on isolated islands in Japan. In the table the studies were divided into two groups: studies to investigate the true nature of uniqueness observed on isolated islands paying attention to the islands themselves and studies of isolated islands from the perspectives of systematic geographic views. As a result, the following problems have been identified. The former studies adhere to the special features of isolated island, many of them describe phenomena seen on the isolated islands or analyze the phenomena but failed to elucidate mechanism or theory of such phenomena to deepen the studies. Few of the former studies focused on large scaled examinations to compare a whole region of the isolated islands with other regions or compare mountain villages with other types of villages. On the other hand, only few studies paid attentions to differences among the isolated islands conducting micro level studies and adopted measuring techniques.
