At the beginning of 21th century, Japanese Society entered into the depopulated society, although one-third of the prefectures of Japan had decreased the population in 1950s. This regional population difference occurred gradually in over fifty years' social mobility. How can urban sociologists explain this process of social change in Japanese local community? This study is an attempt to construct the history of regional mobility from the point of view of family and generation. <BR> Following the investigation of the national census according to the administrative divisions and the municipalities of northeast Japan, the significance of the change of population is showed in the several case studies of rural and urban communities in Aomori prefecture. Looking like as rational way of the development of these communities until 1980s, this changing process clearly revealed a contradiction in 1990s. The model that explains the social change of Japan in postwar period by an alternation of generations indicates a division into center and periphery opposites of Japanese society. The result of this inquiry may suggest that urban sociologists are responsible for building a new urban-rural/center-periphery relationship model and proposing a practicable way of community revitalization.
