Description

Explore the foundations of Japanese economic structure with this academic study from the Routledge Japanese Studies Series. This book offers a deep look into the lifetime employment system, which stands as a defining part of capitalist modernity in contemporary Japan. By examining the work attitudes and values held by employees, the text investigates how Japanese corporate culture functions in a changing world. Author Peter Matanle provides a detailed analysis using original documentary data. This information comes from extensive research conducted within four large Japanese corporations. The study helps readers understand whether Japan is moving toward Western forms of capitalist organization or maintaining its unique identity. This resource is a valuable tool for students and researchers interested in sociology, anthropology, and global economic relations.
