The book is the first to explore the history and political
significance of the Japanese public housing program. In the 1960s,
as Japan's postwar economy boomed, architects and urban planners
inspired equally by Western modernism and Soviet ideas of housing
as a basic right created new cityscapes to house populations turned
into refugees by the war. Over time, as Japan's society aged and
the economy began to stagnate, these structures have become a
burden on society. In this closely researched monograph on the
conditions of Japanese housing, Tatiana Knoroz sheds unexpected
light on the rise and fall of the idea of social democracy in Japan
which will be of interest to historians, architects, and scholars
of Asian economic modernization.
