Opis

Japanese popular culture has developed in many unexpected and fascinating ways. From contemporary pop culture's beginnings in the shadow of the Second World War and the earlier China campaign, Japan's sense of identity has been contested, challenged, reconsidered, restructured, and revived through multiple popular media. Pop culture, though, has always occupied a singular place in Japan's expression of selfhood and otherness, providing vicarious experiences of life within Japan.
