This book provides insightful sociological analyses of Japanese
demography and families, paying attention not only to national
average data, but also to regional variations and community level
analyses. In analyzing Japanese family issues such as demographic
changes, courtship and marriage, international marriage, divorce,
late-life divorce, and the elderly living alone, this book
emphasizes the significance of two theoretical frameworks: the dual
structure and regional variations of the community network in
Japan. By emphasizing the extensive cultural diversity from one
region to another, this book represents a paradigm shift from
former studies of Japanese families, which relied mostly on
national average data. The method of analysis adopted in the study
is qualitative, with a historical perspective. The book is thus an
invitation to more in-depth, qualitative dialogue in the field of
family sociology in Japan. This book will be of great interest not
only to Asian scholars, but also to other specialists in
comparative family studies around the world.
