Modern-day Japan has proven to be a complex nation struggling to
combine traditional attitudes with the political and social demands
of an advanced industrialized economy. This struggle to balance the
past with the present has had a significant impact on the structure
of human relations in contemporary Japan, particularly in the areas
of the family and family dynamics, lifestyles, the education of
children, the socialization of youth, women in the workplace, and
the elderly. In all cases, we find a dual structure where
traditional values and modern practices coexist. Based on a dual
perspective that incorporates modern Western capitalism into
Japan's traditional agrarian society, this book reveals a complex
of cultural assumptions that determines the manners and customs of
the Japanese people.
