Contesting Precarity in Japan details the new forms of workers'
protest and opposition that have developed as Japan's economy has
transformed over the past three decades and highlights their impact
upon the country's policymaking process. Drawing on a new dataset
charting protest events from the 1980s to the present, Saori
Shibata produces the first systematic study of Japan's new
precarious labour movement. It details the movement's rise during
Japan's post-bubble economic transformation and highlights the
different and innovative forms of dissent that mark the end of the
country's famously non-confrontational industrial relations. In
doing so, moreover, she shows how this new pattern of industrial
and social tension is reflected within the country's macroeconomic
policymaking, resulting in a new policy dissensus that has
consistently failed to offer policy reforms that would produce a
return to economic growth. As a result, Shibata argues that the
Japanese model of capitalism has therefore become increasingly
disorganized.
