Global Japan: The Experience of Japan's New Immigrant and Overseas Communities
ISBN: 9780415546263 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Japanese have long regarded themselves as a homogenous nation, clearly separate from other nations. However, this long-standing view is being undermined by the present international reality of increased global population movement. This has resulted in the establishment both of significant Japanese communities outside Japan, and of large non-Japanese minorities within Japan, and has forced the Japanese to re-conceptualise their nationality in new and more flexible ways.
This work provides a comprehensive overview of these issues and examines the context of immigration to and emigration... The Japanese have long regarded themselves as a homogenous nation, clearly separate from other nations. However, this long-standing view is being unde...

The East Asian Welfare Model: Welfare Orientalism and the State
ISBN: 9780415172110 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For many politicians and observers in the West, East Asia has provided a broad range of positive images of the state's intervention in society. Neoliberals grew excited by popular welfare systems that cost little in expenditure and bureaucracy. Social-democrats thought they had found a model for social cohesion and equality. In fact the reality in East Asia is rather different from these stereotypes.
In this book six specialists of six different societies in East Asia (Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, China, Singapore and Hong Kong) examine the role of the state in their welfare systems. There...

Children of the Japanese State: The Changing Role of Child Protection Institutions in Contemporary Japan
ISBN: 9780198234227 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Japan today, over 30,000 children are in the care of the state. Drawing on his long-term fieldwork in an institution for such children, Roger Goodman describes what happens to them in a country with no professional social workers and little tradition of adopting or fostering children in need of care. He explains how, in the 1990s, the convergence of several factors--in particular, Japan's rapidly declining birth-rate, its signing of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, and its "discovery" of child abuse--led to a new role for child protection institutions. In the...

Ideology and Practice in Modern Japan
ISBN: 9780415061025 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The issue of how Japanese society operates, and in particular why it has succeeded, has generated a wide variety of explanatory models, including the Confucian ethic, classlessness, group consciousness, and uniqueness in areas as diverse as body images and language patterns. In Ideology and Practice in Modern Japan the contributors examine these models and the ways in which they have sometimes been used to create a sense of Japaneseness, that obscures the fact that Japan is actually an extremely complex and heterogenous society. In particular, practice at the micro-level of society is...
