**「貧困の解決者」河上肇の生涯**
経済学者。京都帝国大学でマルクス経済学の研究を行っていたが、教授の職を辞し、共産主義の実践活動に入る。日本共産党の党員となったため検挙され、獄中生活を送った。著書に『貧乏物語』や『資本論入門』などがある。
生い立ち
1879年（明治12年）10月20日、山口県玖珂郡岩国町（現在の岩国市）に旧岩国藩士の家に生まれる。祖母に溺愛され、わがままに育ったという。
活動
1908年（明治41年）、田島錦治に請われ、京都帝大の講師となって以後は研究生活を送る。1912年には、これまでの自己の研究を総括した論文集『経済学研究』を執筆する。
貧困問題に対処
1916年（大正5年）9月11日から12月26日まで『東京朝日』に『貧乏物語』を連載し、翌1917年3月に出版。中にはマルクス経済学の紹介もあるが、結論は、貧乏をなくすには金持ちが奢侈をやめることだというものだった。
1920年（大正9年）9月に京大で経済学部長になる。その後、マルクス経済学に傾倒し、研究を進める。1921年（大正10年）河上が執筆した論文「断片」のため、雑誌『改造』は発売禁止となるが、この論文はのちに虎の門事件を起こす難波大助に影響を与えたという。
1930年（昭和5年）、京都から東京に移るが、やがて労働農民党は誤っていると批判し、大山と決別。雑誌『改造』に『第二貧乏物語』を連載し、マルクス主義の入門書として広く読まれた。

English Summary
**Life of “Poverty Solver” Hajime Kawakami**
Economist. Although he was conducting research on Marxian economics at Kyoto Imperial University, he resigned from his position as a professor and began practicing communism. Because he became a member of the Japanese Communist Party, he was arrested and spent time in prison. His books include ``Poverty Story'' and ``Introduction to Capital.''
early life
Born on October 20, 1879 (Meiji 12) in Iwakuni-cho, Kuga-gun, Yamaguchi Prefecture (currently Iwakuni City) into a family of former Iwakuni clan samurai. It is said that she was doted on by her grandmother and grew up selfish.
activity
In 1908 (Meiji 41), he was asked by Kinji Tajima to become a lecturer at Kyoto Imperial University, and after that he spent his life as a researcher. In 1912, he wrote ``Research on Economics'', a collection of papers that summarized his research to date.
address poverty issues
``Poverty Story'' was serialized in ``Tokyo Asahi'' from September 11 to December 26, 1916, and was published the following year in March 1917. There was an introduction to Marxian economics, but the conclusion was that the way to eliminate poverty was for the rich to stop being extravagant.
In September 1920, he became the dean of the economics department at Kyoto University. Afterwards, he became interested in Marxian economics and continued his research. In 1921 (Taisho 10), the publication of the magazine ``Kaisei'' was banned due to the article ``Fragment'' written by Kawakami, but this article is said to have influenced Daisuke Namba, who later led the Toranomon Incident.
In 1930, he moved from Kyoto to Tokyo, but eventually criticized the Workers' and Peasants' Party as wrong, and broke up with Oyama. He serialized ``The Second Story of Poverty'' in the magazine ``Kaisei'' and it was widely read as an introductory text to Marxism.
