Sexual harassment in Japanese politics examines a problem that
violates women's human rights and prevents a flourishing democracy.
Japan fares badly in international gender equality indices,
especially for female political representation. The scarcity of
women in politics reflects the status of women and also exacerbates
it. Based on interviews with female politicians around the country
from all levels of government, this book sheds light on the sexist
and sometimes dangerous environments in Japanese legislative
assemblies. These environments reflect and recreate broader sexual
inequalities in Japanese society and are a hothouse for sexual
harassment. Like many places around the world, workplace sexual
harassment laws and regulations in Japan often fail to protect
women from being harassed. Even more, in the 'workplace' of the
legislative council, such regulations are typically absent. This
book discusses what this means for women in politics in the context
of a broader culture whereby victims of sexual violence are largely
silenced.
