The Japanese family is shifting in fundamental ways, specifically
in terms of attitudes towards family and societal relationships,
and also the role of the family in society. Changing Japanese
Family explores these significant changes which include an ageing
population, delayed marriages, a fallen birth rate, which has
fallen below the level needed for replacement, and a decline in
three-generational households and family businesses. The authors
investigate these changes and the effects of them on Japanese
society, whilst also setting the study in the context of wider
economic and social changes in Japan. They offer interesting
comparisons with international societies, especially with Southern
Europe, where similar changes to the family and its role are
occuring. This fascinating text is essential reading for those with
an enthusiasm in Japanese studies but will also engage those with a
concern in Japanese culture and society, as well as appealing to a
readership with a wider interest in the sociology of the family.
