Creating Social Cohesion in an Interdependent World examines the
ways in which two very different societies, Australia and Japan,
have dealt with challenges to their cultural and institutional
fabric, as well as the social cohesion arising from the
acceleration of global interdependence during recent decades.
Deepening globalization has generated great social dislocation and
uncertainty about collective identity and to anxiety about how to
accommodate apparently unstoppable external influences. The studies
in this volume explore areas which have experienced significant
impact from globalization, including immigration policy, ethnic and
racial intermarriage, attitudes towards ethnic and racial
minorities, national and cultural identity, education policy and
labor relations. The approach used is innovative in juxtaposing two
societies which, although developed, are contrasting in their
historical origins and contemporary cultural legacies.
