 Takahashi Korekiyo Summary
Korekiyo Takahashi was born on July 27, 1854, in Edo (Tokyo) and temporarily given the name Wakiji by his real father, Shozaemon Kawamura, a master painter attached to the Shogun's court.
Takahashi's successful career in the bureaucracy started in 1881 in the newly established Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce, where he made several important contributions to modern business practices, such as developing the registration of patents.
Takahashi was made a baron and later a viscount, and in 1911 he became governor of the Bank of Japan, where he lowered interest rates as an anti-depression measure.

Takahashi Korekiyo's Fiscal Retrenchment in the Mid-1930s and its Meiji Roots
Takahashi Korekiyo, often called "Japan's Keynes," is best known for introducing expansionary fiscal and monetary policies as finance minister in the early 1930s.

 History of the United States Patent Office, Chapter 31
In early 1886, the Japanese government sent Korekiyo Takahashi (1854-1936), soon to be their first Commissioner of Patents, to Washington to study the U.S. Patent Office in an effort to learn how to set up the Japanese Patent Office.
Takahashi had studied for a year in the United States when he was thirteen, and he was fluent in English.
Takahashi, I have answered many questions asked by you; would you object to answering a single question which I would like to put to you?" The Japanese Commissioner at once indicated his readiness to answer.

Thanks to the aggressive fiscal policies of Korekiyo Takahashi (who served as prime minister as well as finance minister), Japan came out of deflation earlier than the United States did.
Takahashi opposed the increase in military spending, but ended up being assassinated in the so-called 2-26 incident of 1936.
One lesson from Takahashi's approach is that policies need to be devised based on a blueprint of what the economy will look like after it comes out of its deflationary state.

The journalist Takahashi was initially critical of the theories of Korekiyo Takahashi, the former prime minister and minister of finance in the new cabinet that took power after the fall of the yen.
But the politician Takahashi [no relative of the journalist of (he same name] intuitively understood the potential of deficit financing with a flexible exchange rate.
Under Takahashi's finance ministry, central government expenditures rose 20% in each year of 1932, 1933 and 1934, and all in all from 31 to 38% of net domestic product.

 CEP: discussion papers
The paper by Richard J Smethurst discusses the influences that led to the economic policies pursued in the interwar period by Takahashi Korekiyo, who engineered Japan's recovery from the depression in the early 1930s, and is often thought of as the 'Keynes' of Japan.
The paper traces the influence on Takahashi's thinking of his Western experiences and diverse bureaucratic career, but focusses in particular on the role of Takahashi's mentor, Maeda Masana.
The paper by Masataka Matsuura analyses the term zaikai as used in prewar Japan and its identity as a small network whose influence was distinct from that of the zaibatsu.

 TIME.com: Takahashi on Roosevelt -- Oct. 9, 1933 -- Page 1
Japanese affectionately call 78-year-old Finance Minister Korekiyo Takahashi "Daruma" after the pot-bellied Buddhist sage, symbol of good luck.
Takahashi, who in his youth indentured himself to an Oakland, Calif, farmer to work for three years for a total wage of $50, voiced his sympathy for President Roosevelt, his hope that the U. may also be able to avoid printing press inflation, no matter how low the dollar sinks on international exchange.
To 78-year-old and frankly old-fashioned Korekiyo Takahashi this is nonsense.
