This book provides state-of-the-art and interdisciplinary topics on
solving matrix eigenvalue problems, particularly by using recent
petascale and upcoming post-petascale supercomputers. It gathers
selected topics presented at the International Workshops on
Eigenvalue Problems: Algorithms; Software and Applications, in
Petascale Computing (EPASA2014 and EPASA2015), which brought
together leading researchers working on the numerical solution of
matrix eigenvalue problems to discuss and exchange ideas - and in
so doing helped to create a community for researchers in eigenvalue
problems. The topics presented in the book, including novel
numerical algorithms, high-performance implementation techniques,
software developments and sample applications, will contribute to
various fields that involve solving large-scale eigenvalue
problems.

At the start of the twenty-first century, the Japanese financial
system is undergoing a major transformation. This process is
spurred by a sense of crisis. Dominated by large institutions, the
Japanese banking system has suffered from serious problems with
non-performing loans since the early 1990s, when the Japanese stock
market and urban real estate market both crashed. Delays in
responding to these twin asset bubbles, by both regulatory
authorities and the banks themselves, made matters worse and led to
a banking crisis in late 1997 and early 1998. Not anticipating this
setback, in late 1996 the Japanese government inaugurated its Big
Bang of comprehensive financial deregulation designed to complete
the process of creating `free, fair, and open financial markets'.
Beginning in late 1998 and early 1999 the government finally
embarked on a major rehabilitation of the Japanese banking system,
including making available some Yen 60 trillion (approximately USD
500 billion) of government funds to recapitalize fifteen major
banks, adequately fund the deposit insurance program, and write off
the bad loans of nationalized or bankrupted banks. One result of
this reform process is that the Ministry of Finance (MOF), which
dominated Japanese financial system policy for most of the post-war
period, has been stripped of most of its former regulatory powers.
The purpose of this book is to describe, analyze, and evaluate the
process that is transforming the Japanese financial system. The
chapters address various issues relating to the transition of the
Japanese financial system from a bank-centered and
relationship-based system to a competitive market-based system.
Questions taken up include: Why did Japanese banks get into such
serious trouble? Why has the MOF lost its immense power? How will
the Big Bang's financial deregulation further change the Japanese
financial system, including the huge government financial
institutions and postal savings system? What are some of the
broader implications of this transition? The book is divided into
three parts: Part I considers the origins of Japan's banking
crisis; Part II focuses on five particularly important areas of
major actual and potential changes; Part III addresses the effects
of the Big Bang, including its potential systemic externalities.
Taken together, this book offers an unusually up-to-date,
comprehensive and thorough appraisal and evaluation of the profound
changes occurring in Japan's financial system.

The second edition of a comprehensive account of all the major
aspects of the Japanese economy, substantially updated and
expanded. This textbook offers a comprehensive, rigorous but
accessible account of all the major aspects of the Japanese
economy, grounding its approach in mainstream economics. The second
edition has been extensively revised and substantially updated,
with new material that covers Japan's period of economic stagnation
between 1991 and 2010. The first edition, published in 1992,
focused on Japan as a success story of catch-up economic
development; this edition reflects the lessons learned from Japan's
Lost Two Decades. After presenting the historical background, the
book begins with macroeconomics, studying growth and business
cycles. It then covers essential policy issues, with new material
that takes into account the Japanese banking crisis of 1997-1998
and the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, discussing financial
regulation, monetary policy, and fiscal policy. It goes on to
examine saving, demography, and social security in light of Japan's
ongoing demographic transition; industrial organization; labor
markets; international trade and international finance; and the
Japan-U.S. relationship. A new chapter offers a detailed analysis
of the Lost Two Decades, synthesizing and applying concepts
discussed in previous chapters and offering insights into such
issues as successful catch-up growth, demographic shifts, and
credit booms and busts.
This volume seeks to explain the political economy of the Abe
government and the so-called 'Abenomics' economic policies. The Abe
government represents a major turning point in postwar Japanese
political economy. In 2019, Abe became the longest serving Prime
Minister in Japanese history. Abe's government stood out not only
for its longevity, but also for its policies. Abe came to power
promising to reinvigorate Japan's economy under the banner of
Abenomics. He pursed a host of structural reforms and industrial
promotions to increase Japan's potential growth rate. Abe also
achieved important legislative victories in security policy.
However, the government also faced significant controversies. The
book will hold appeal to scholars and students specializing in the
study of Japanese politics, comparative political economy, the
politics of contemporary advanced democracies, macroeconomic
policy, labor market reforms, corporate governance, gender
equality, agricultural reforms, energy and climate change, and East
Asian security.
