With more than 700 alphabetically arranged entries, The
Encyclopedia of Contemporary Japanese Culture offers extensive
coverage of Japanese culture spanning from the end of the Japanese
Imperialist period in 1945, right up to the present day. Entries
range from shorter definitions, histories or biographies to longer
overview essays giving an in-depth treatment of major issues.
Culture is defined in its broadest sense to allow for coverage of
the diversity of practice and production in a country as vibrant
and rapidly changing as Japan.
Including a new preface by the editor to bring the book fully
up-to-date with cultural developments since 2001, this Encyclopedia
will be an invaluable reference tool for students of Japanese and
Asian Studies, as well as providing a fascinating insight into
Japanese culture for the general reader.
