Popular Culture and Globalisation in Japan provides exciting and fascinating insights into Japanese popular culture. It explores the Japaneseness of Japanese popular culture by focusing on the intersection of globalization and popular cultural products associated with Japan. The editors argue that there are many insides and outsides, which inform the production and consumption of Japanese popular culture, thus that the Japan in Japanese popular culture is always dislocated, contaminated and crisscrossed.
This text is clearly presented through a...

This book is about the underside of Japan's economic miracle. It is an account of people who have been forgotten in Japan's push to industrialize in the postwar era: the coalminers of Chikuho on Japan's southernmost island. The dirty and neglected character of Chikuho is in stark contrast with Japan's prevailing image as an international leader in technology and an affluent, socially cohesive country. The book challenges the concepts of industrial harmony, cultural homogeneity and caring government that dominate much of the literature on Japan.

The keystone of U.S. security in East Asia, Okinawa is a troubled symbol of resistance and identity. Ambivalence about the nature of Okinawan identity lies behind relations between Japan, the United States, and Okinawa today. Fully one-fifth of Okinawa's land is occupied by a foreign military power (the United States), and Okinawans carry a disproportionate responsibility for Japanese and U.S. security in the region. It thus figures prominently in the re-examination of key questions such as the nature of Japan, including the debate over Japanese "purity" and the nature of Japanese...
