At the time Aum Shinrikyo emerged, most Japanese assumed that they
lived in one of the most well-ordered and safest societies, a model
that had much to offer the chaotic Western world. This assumption
was shaken on 20 March 1995 when the deadly nerve gas sarin was
released on the Tokyo subway system. Since that incident, the 'Aum
affair' has had widespread repercussions and shaken the Japanese
psyche in a serious way. This volume provides a window onto
contemporary Japanese society by considering the various reactions
and responses to this crisis precipitated by this deviant religious
movement.
