Description

Explore the complex history of one of the world's most famous economic success stories. In Japan, the System That Soured, Routledge examines the transition from the rapid growth of the Japanese economic miracle to a period of prolonged economic malaise. After seven years of stagnation, this book investigates why the very structures that once fueled success began to hinder progress. The narrative explains how the policies and mental habits established during the 1950s and 1960s, which helped create the concept of "Japan, Inc.", became obstacles in later decades. As the country moved past its initial catch-up phase, the systems that worked during its early evolution faced new challenges in a changing global landscape. This book provides a detailed look at how outdated structures and policies can impact a nation's ability to maintain growth and why sweeping reform is often necessary to prevent dwindling economic momentum.
