Description

Explore the complex history of the suicide phenomenon in Japan through this academic study from Routledge. Moving beyond the common label of a "Suicide Nation," this book addresses the many questions and paradoxes that often go unexamined in standard literature. It provides a way to correct misconceptions by looking at how the concept of suicide was shaped, reinterpreted, and reinvented throughout the 20th century. Spanning from the 1900s to the 1980s, this work offers a deep look into the social and historical evolution of the topic. It serves as a timely contribution to the history of suicide, filling gaps in existing research. This book is an essential resource for students, academics, and readers interested in the modern history of Asia and the sociological shifts within Japanese society.
