What shapes the decisions of employees in Japan? The authors of
this comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the relationship
between work and society in Japan argue that individual decisions
about work can only be understood through the broader social
context. Many factors combine to affect such choices including the
structuring of labour markets, social policy and, of course, global
influences which have come increasingly to impinge on the
organisation of work and life generally. By considering labour
markets, social policy and relationships between labour and
management, the book offers penetrating insights into contemporary
Japanese society and glimpses of what might come in the future.
Underlying the discussion is a challenge to the celebration of
Japanese management practices which has dominated the literature
for the last three decades. This is an important book for students
of sociology and economics.
