Description

This comprehensive academic text, first published in 2004, examines Japan's lifetime employment system and its place within modern capitalist structures. Peter Matanle draws on original documentary data from extensive research across four major Japanese corporations to investigate the defining aspects of Japanese employment culture and work attitudes. The book explores critical questions about whether Japan is converging with Western capitalist models and analyses the complex relationship between employee values and corporate organisation. Through rigorous analysis of primary source material, Matanle provides scholars, researchers and students with an in-depth understanding of how lifetime employment has shaped Japanese business practice and society. Part of the University of Sheffield and Routledge Japanese Studies Series, this work offers essential insight into the cultural and economic foundations of Japanese capitalism during a period of significant global transition.
