Abstract

Television and Tokyo—the capital of Japan—have been closely related since the end of World War II. In particular, when the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games (the Games of the XVIII Olympiad) was held, Tokyo became a city with diverse meanings that were given by the television.This paper attempts to elucidate the relations between Tokyo and television during Japan’s high economic growth period from three perspectives: first, public views of Tokyo that were created by “television during the Olympic Games,” second, relocation of television businesses prompted by the Olympics, and third, Tokyo depicted as a near-futuristic city in TV programs.The author examines the relations between television and Tokyo in the high growth period in the early 1960s in the context of these three aspects: (1) Tokyo created by television, (2) television in Tokyo, and (3) Tokyo in television.
