In highly industrialized and institutionalized societies aiming for maximum efficiency, individual activities must be synchronized with the daily rhythms of a city. As a spatial and institutional realm, the city imposes on people and influences their level of attachment, consequently altering their sense of home. This is most obvious in contemporary cities, where daily life involves movement, and where rest is often sought outside the living place, while on the move. By examining the spatial and temporal aspects of mobility of young Tokyo residents, this article explores how their sense of home and levels of attachment to the physical environment are affected by the city. It reveals a dynamic sense of home in which routes are more significant than roots and in which attachment is not restricted to a single location. Instead, it is understood as attachment to temporal and spatial relationships produced by the activities of people and institutions.

“…5 Po podatkih popisa prebivalstva iz leta 2010 4,26 milijona (70,8 %) ljudi dela v terciarnem sektorju (trgovini, prevoznem sektorju, komunikacijah in drugih storitvah). 6 Primeri tovrstnih opredelitev so standardno metropolitansko zaposlitveno območje (Yamada in Tokuoka, 1991), funkcionalno mestno jedro (Kawashima, 1981) in integrirano metropolitansko območje (Takeuchi in Mori, 1981). Nedavno sta Kanemoto in Tokuoka (2002) predlagala novo opredelitev: mestno zaposlitveno območje.…”

Japanese metropolises have undergone drastic changes over the past 30 years. The concentra tion of population in large cities and subsequent suburbanization, extension of commuter zones and metropolitan areas, and suburbanization of retail and industrial activities have reorganized the metropolitan areas.This paper attempts to review the geographical studies on metropolitan areas in recent decades, paying special attention to the dominant phenomena occurring in metropolitan areas and research trends among them. Studies on metropolitan areas began with the expansion of large cities and urbanization in out lying areas. Later, the processes of metropolitan growth and the structure of metropolitan areas became the main themes of metropolitan studies.As in developed nations in Western Europe and North America, deconcentration of the popula tion and economic activities are common in Japanese metropolitan areas. Hence, geographical stu dies on metropolitan areas are reviewed under the following headings: suburbanization of popula tion, outmovement of industry, suburbanization of retailing, deconcentration of employment, flows of people and commodities, office activities, increase in high buildings and underground establish ments, and suburbanization of housing.Despite the relative decline of the central city in the metropolitan area, tertiary activities as well as office activities still exist in the central part of the city, and the Japanese suburbanization areas do not have serious inner city problems.
