Description

This groundbreaking study explores the diverse and complex cultural landscape of Japan, challenging the conventional portrayal of the nation as homogenous. The book provides an in-depth examination of marginalised communities including the Ainu, Koreans, Buraku, women, returnees and the deaf - groups whose voices are often overlooked by mainstream society due to physical, ethnic, religious or other differences. Through compelling narratives and scholarly analysis, this publication from the Graduate Institute of International Studies gives eloquent voice to the experiences and perspectives of these communities, revealing the rich tapestry of cultural, ethnic and linguistic diversity that exists within Japan today. Essential reading for students and scholars of anthropology, sociology and Japanese studies seeking to understand the nation beyond surface-level stereotypes.

Key Features

Addresses the cultural and ethnic diversity of Japan through the lived experiences of marginalised communities often excluded from mainstream narratives.

Examines the Ainu, Korean, Buraku, women, returnees and deaf populations in Japan, providing nuanced perspectives on their social positions.

Published by Routledge as part of the Graduate Institute of International Studies publication series, ensuring academic rigour and scholarly credibility.

Challenges conventional homogenous portrayals of Japanese culture by exploring linguistic and cultural differences within the nation.

Serves as an essential resource for anthropology and sociology students studying social diversity and marginalisation in East Asian contexts.
