This edited volume approaches the life experiences and well-being
of Japanese people from an empirical perspective. It explores the
current trend of happiness among Japanese over time and examines
the association of income, lifestyle, and perceived life conditions
using modern econometric models with supplementary qualitative
observations. Issues relating to ageing, gender, household division
of labour, and emigration are also examined to provide a wide scope
of results based on both survey and field methods for culturally
sensitive researchers. Going beyond the conventional cultural
interpretation of the uniqueness of the Japanese case, this book
provides timely, empirical evidence for understanding how the
various social groups comprising the Japanese population have
enjoyed a better quality of life, while some groups are very
dissatisfied with social arrangements and have elected to emigrate.
The book is a pioneering endeavour to reveal the detailed structure
of quality of life and well-being in Japanese society.
