Description

This comprehensive exploration examines how parent-child relationships develop throughout a child's life in Japan, from infancy through the transition to playschools and formal education. The book investigates the vital role of physical touch and contact in establishing intimacy and emotional bonds, and traces how these connections persist even as direct physical interaction decreases over time. By situating Japanese family dynamics within broader theoretical frameworks from both Japanese and Western scholarship, the work addresses concepts of body, mind, intimacy and feeling. The analysis compares Japanese family practices with approaches observed in other cultures, providing readers with a nuanced understanding of how cultural values shape early childhood development, parental bonding, and the emotional foundations that carry forward into adulthood. This Japan Anthropology Workshop Series title offers insights for anthropologists, social scientists, educators and anyone interested in cross-cultural family studies and child development.
