Description

This critical analysis examines the nihonjinron, a major Japanese academic tradition that argues for radical cultural and psychological distinctiveness. Originally published in 1988, the book challenges the foundational assumptions underlying this influential body of thought, which attributes Japanese uniqueness to linguistic, sociological and philosophical differences. Peter Dale places particular emphasis on psychoanalysis as the centrepiece of his examination, offering a rigorous deconstruction of claims about Japanese identity and exceptionalism. The Routledge Revivals edition makes this landmark work accessible to contemporary scholars, students and readers interested in understanding how national identity narratives are constructed and sustained within academic discourse.

Key Features

The book provides a critical examination of nihonjinron theory and its central claims about Japanese cultural and psychological distinctiveness.

Peter Dale employs psychoanalytic frameworks as the primary analytical lens for deconstructing arguments about Japanese uniqueness and identity.

Originally published in 1988, this Routledge Revivals edition restores an influential academic work for modern scholars and students.

The analysis addresses linguistic, sociological and philosophical dimensions that nihonjinron proponents cite as evidence of Japanese exceptionalism.
