Description

Explore the complex definition of locality within the Japanese context with this academic volume from Routledge. This book investigates what it means to be local in a modern society, using the concept of locality to examine significant political and socio-economic shifts occurring across Japan. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of critical issues such as demographic changes, electoral and administrative reforms, and the challenges of rural decline and revitalization. The text also addresses welfare reform and the metabolic rift appearing in food production and energy systems. Through various chapters, this edited volume discusses the contested ways in which locality is being reconstituted in both historical and contemporary settings. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in Japanese sociology, anthropology, and political science.
