À la fin des années 1980, la spéculation foncière est à son comble au Japon. Les prix des terrains connaissent une hausse extraordinaire, surtout aux abords des grandes agglomérations.

[...] dans le système de l'économie de marché, aujourd'hui devenu mondial, le phénomène de la spéculation foncière constitue le principal obstacle pour toute volonté d'aménagement de l'espace. Le jeu plus ou moins faussé de l'offre et de la demande, aboutit à cette contradiction peu ou prou exacerbée mais demeurant à ce jour insurmontable, qu'un lieu rendu agréable et attractif par un aménagement voit immédiatement ses prix augmenter, rendant ainsi à la fois indispensables et plus difficiles les aménagements publics pour tenter de maintenir sur place les plus démunis. À l'inverse, toute portion du territoire tenue artificiellement à l'écart des dynamiques de spéculation, devient à la longue un lieu déprécié et répulsif où seuls de lourds investissements publics permettent, en tout cas pour un temps, de préserver une certaine qualité de la vie. C'est cette dynamique latente de spéculation foncière qui conduit irrémédiablement la ville différentielle, à la ville clivée, puis à la ville ségrégée. 6, record 12, French, - sp%C3%A9culation%20fonci%C3%A8re
