Description

This scholarly analysis examines how Japan's state has shaped reproduction and women's lives through political and economic intervention from 1868 to today. Drawing on Foucault's concept of governmentality, the author explores reproduction across three dimensions: economic, biological, and socio-political. The work traces Japan's modernization process and reveals how state policies targeted women's bodies and everyday experiences to integrate them into the broader Japanese political economy. Essential reading for scholars of Japanese history, gender studies, political economy, and modernisation theory, this book offers critical insight into the relationship between nation-building and reproductive control in one of Asia's most studied economies.

Key Features

Applies Foucault's governmentality framework to analyse state intervention in Japanese women's reproductive lives and economic participation.

Covers three distinct forms of reproduction - economic, biological, and socio-political - across 150+ years of Japanese history.

Published by Routledge in the University of Sheffield Japanese Studies Series, providing peer-reviewed academic scholarship.

Examines the intersection of modernisation, national development, and women's bodies in twentieth and twenty-first century Japan.

Traces political economy policies from the Meiji Restoration (1868) through contemporary Japan, revealing long-term state strategies.
