Evolving for centuries in relative isolation, sport in Japan
developed a unique character reflective of Japanese culture and
society. In recent decades, Japan's drive towards cultural and
economic modernization has consciously incorporated a modernization
of its sports cultures. "Japan, Sport and Society" provides
insights into this process, revealing the tensions between
continuity and change, tradition and modernity, the local and the
global in a culture facing the new economic and political realities
of our modern world. The book explores three broad areas of
interest:
- sport and modern society in Japan
- current issues in social reconstruction and reproduction through
sport
- modernization, globalization and sport in Japan
Providing unprecedented access to new work from Japanese scholars,
and raising key questions of globalization and cultural identity,
this text represents a fascinating resource for students and
researchers of sport and society.
