Bringing together a number of perspectives on the Japanese housing
system, Housing and Social Transition in Japan provides a
comprehensive, challenging and theoretically developed account of
the dynamic role of the housing system during a period of
unprecedented social and economic change in one of the most
enigmatic social, political, and economic systems of the modern
world. While Japan demonstrates many of the characteristics of some
western housing and social systems, including mass homeownership
and consumption-based lifestyles, extensive economic growth and
rapid urban modernization has been achieved in balance with
traditional social values and the maintenance of the family system.
Helpfully divided into three sections, Housing and Social
Transition in Japan: explores the dynamics of the development of
the housing system in post-war Japan deals with social issues
related to housing in terms of social aging, family relations,
gender and inequality addresses the Japanese housing system and
social change in relation to comparative and theoretical
frameworks. As well as providing challenges and insights for the
academic community at large, this book also provides a good
introduction to the study of Japan and its housing, economic,
social and welfare system generally.
