The phenomena of Japan emerging as one of the most competitive
industrial nations in the twentieth century and the general shift
of competitiveness to East Asia since the 1980s have been widely
studied by many scholars from different fields of the social
sciences. Drawing on sources from Japanese, Swiss, and American
archives, the historical analysis of this book tackles a wide range
of actors and sheds light on the various processes that enabled
Japanese watch companies to transfer technology and expand
commercially starting in the second half of the nineteenth century.
By exploring the case of the watch industry, this book serves to
establish a better understanding of the origins of the
competitiveness of Japanese manufacturing and its evolution until
its decline in the post-bubble economy (in the 1990s and 2000s).
