Description

Explore a deep analysis of the Japanese sex industry during the postwar economic boom with this academic work from Routledge. Part of the ASAA Women in Asia Series, this book examines how gender inequality in modern Japan took root through specific historical policies and social structures. The text argues that a "sexual contract" was established to manage the male workforce during a period of intense economic growth. As salarymen faced arduous, underpaid, and highly organized work environments, the system provided access to women's bodies as a form of inducement. This included workplace trips to hot spring resorts, hostess bars, and prostitution tourism to South Korea. By studying these historical patterns, readers gain a better understanding of the connections between corporate structure and gender dynamics in Japan. This book is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and Asian studies, providing a clear overview of how the postwar era shaped contemporary social relations.
