In twenty-first century Japan there are numerous instances of media
harassment, intimidation, censorship and self-censorship that
undermine the freedom of the press and influence how the news is
reported. Since Abe returned to power in 2012, the recrudescence of
nationalism under his leadership has emboldened right-wing
activists and organizations targeting liberal media outlets,
journalists, peace museums and ethnic Korean residents in Japan.
This ongoing culture war involves the media, school textbooks,
constitutional revision, pacifism and security doctrine. This text
is divided into five sections that cover: Politics of press
freedom; The legal landscape; History and culture; Marginalization;
PR, public diplomacy and manipulating opinion. Press Freedom in
Contemporary Japan brings together contributions from an
international and interdisciplinary line-up of academics and
journalists intimately familiar with the current climate, in order
to discuss and evaluate these issues and explore potential future
outcomes. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand
contemporary Japan and the politics of freedom of expression and
transparency in the Abe era. It will appeal to students, academics,
Japan specialists, journalists, legal scholars, historians,
political scientists, sociologists, and those engaged in human
rights, media studies and Asian Studies.
