Volunteering is a recent and highly visible phenomenon in Japan,
adopted as a meaningful social activity by millions of Japanese and
covered widely in the Japanese media. This book, based on extensive
original research, tells the stories of community volunteers who
make social change through their everyday acts. It discusses their
experiences in children's activities, the parent-teachers
association, juvenile delinquency prevention campaigns, and care of
the elderly. It explores their conflicts and their motivations, and
argues that personal decisions to volunteer and acts of
volunteering, besides being personal choices, are productive of
larger discussions of the needs and directions of Japanese society.
