Description

Explore the origins of Japan's unique economic success in this scholarly work from the Routledge Library Editions: Business and Economics in Asia. This book examines the concept of harmonious labor-management relations that many attribute to Japanese culture. Instead of viewing these relations as ancient customs, the text argues that this culture of harmony was a conscious invention developed over the last century to meet the demands of a changing industrial society. Readers will learn about the Kyochokai, a semi-bureaucratic organization established in 1919. This group played a leading role in defining the specific values required for a new Japanese-style industrial culture. By analyzing how these traditions were shaped, the book provides deep insight into the evolution of industrial relations and the organized efforts used to build a specific economic identity in Japan.
