Assembling Japan focuses on Japan's modernization as a long-term
process that is reliant on changing technology and that has led to
the nation's full engagement with the global system. This process
forms a complex field of tensions, full of interesting dynamisms
and synergies that can be best understood through the book's
methodology: anthropological analysis combined with historical
contextualization. The approaches in this collection are manifold.
Some chapters examine the themes of modernity, technology and
Japan's global experience though popular culture, from reggae to
football, from television to film. Other topics include coffee,
travel, economics, cultural politics and technological innovation
in the field of robotics. All of the contributions aim to show how
these global interactions have occurred and continue to take place
in twenty-first-century Japan.
