Description

Explore the complexities of life in the world's oldest society. This Routledge publication examines how Japan's unprecedented aging trend affects every aspect of modern life, from the economy and welfare systems to social cohesion and population decline. While many studies focus on the elderly, this book shifts the perspective to the younger generation. It provides a detailed look at how youth navigate a changing landscape, analyzing the formative events and cultural reactions that define their experience. By looking at themes such as employment, parenthood, and sexuality, the text offers a deep understanding of the social pressures facing young people today. Beyond social structures, the book investigates the cultural footprint of this demographic shift. It examines how art, literature, and language reflect the realities of growing up in a super-aging nation. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in anthropology, sociology, and contemporary Japanese studies.
