Description

This Routledge hardback challenges the widespread stereotypical view of Japanese society as a monolithic culture with uniform thought and behaviour patterns. Authors Ross Mouer and Yoshio Sugimoto draw on extensive research conducted in Japan to examine how this image persists, questioning whether the stereotype originates solely from foreign perceptions or is perpetuated by Japanese people themselves. The book offers a critical analysis of contemporary Japanese society that resists the mythologising narratives commonly found in popular discourse. Rather than reinforcing conventional wisdom about Japanese culture, this work presents a more nuanced exploration of how images of Japan are constructed and maintained. Essential reading for anyone seeking to move beyond surface-level understanding of Japanese society, this Routledge publication provides scholarly insight into the gap between popular perception and lived reality in modern Japan.
