Description

Explore the changing landscape of education in Japan through this incisive study from the Nissan Institute and Routledge Japanese Studies. For many students, the high school experience has become a site of conflict. This book examines how recent violent events, rising drop-out rates, and bullying are challenging long-held stereotypes regarding the effectiveness of the Japanese school system. Rather than looking only at statistics, this work provides a unique perspective by viewing the high school experience through the eyes of the students themselves. It connects these individual experiences of educational turmoil to the larger economic and political shifts happening across Japan. This book is an essential resource for those studying sociology, anthropology, or Japanese studies who want to understand the social pressures facing the next generation.
