Can Japan Globalize?

Japan's deepest recession since the Second World War has come to an end in 2000. Yet, the task of reforming Japan is far from completed. The current political drift has brought deregulation to a premature end putting the still vulnerable recovery at risk. What structural changes have already taken place? What important reforms have to be undertaken in the future? The contributions of the book shed light on the transitional path of the Japanese system amid rapid globalization. Can Japan Globalize? covers a broad range of areas from macro- and micro-economic structures to political and social relations.

Precarious Youth in Contemporary Graphic Narratives

This volume explores comics as examples of moral outrage in the face of a reality in which precariousness has become an inherent part of young lives. Taking a thematic approach, the chapters devote attention to the expression and representation of precarious subjectivities, as well as to the economic and professional precarity that characterizes comics creation and production. An international team of authors, young and senior systematically examines the representation of precarious youth in graphic fiction and autobiographic comics, superheroes and precarity, market issues and spaces of activism and vulnerability. With this structure, the book offers a global perspective and comprehensive c...

Japanese family businesses are among the oldest in the world and many of them prove a history record of 200 years and more. Research on several case studies of century old firms (‘shinise’) in Japan reveal three factors as secrets of their longevity: (1) the Japanese family system (‘ie’) favours the eldest son for succession; (2) the option for adopting a capable successor; (3) the inclusion of the relationships with employees, customers, and members of the local community into the strategic decision making. The analysis deals with the succession process in Japan compared to the WIFU Model of Succession in German family firms, and rounds off with perspectives on how to deal with the challenges the Japanese family businesses face regarding the recent changes in the Japanese society.

  • Publisher: Routledge

Against the powerful image of Japan as a rising economic superpower, or even, in Ezra Vogel's influential formulation a deade ago, "Japan as number 1", this book explores the fragility, hubris and human and environmental costs of Japan's desperate drive for hyperdevelopment. As this economic superpower finds itself drifting, rudderless, through the decade, four seminal events seem to emblemise the enveloping crisis: the Kobe Earthquake, which the author shows to be no mere act of nature, but an event whose consequences are intimately bound up with desperate hypergrowth; The Ayum Rikyo poison gas attack, which struck at Japan's sense of security in its deepest senses (psychological and moral,...

Erfolgsmuster langlebiger Familienunternehmen in Japan

Japanische Familienunternehmen gehören zu den langlebigsten der Welt, viele blicken auf eine Geschichte von 200 Jahren und mehr zurück. Anhand der historischen und kulturellen Rahmenbedingungen werden in diesem Band mittels Fallbeispielen drei Faktoren identifiziert, die diese Langlebigkeit begünstigt haben: (1) das japanische Familiensystem favorisiert den ältesten Sohn für die Nachfolge; (2) Adoption eines Mitglieds der Zweigfamilie, des Schwiegersohns oder eines fähigen Managers als Möglichkeit, auf Nachfolgeschwierigkeiten flexibel zu reagieren; (3) Beziehungen zu Mitarbeitenden, Kunden, Zulieferern und Mitgliedern der örtlichen Gemeinde werden in die Perspektiven zur Kontinuität einbezogen. Die BeiträgerInnen analysieren zudem, wie Familienunternehmen mit der Herausforderung des Wertewandels in der japanischen Gesellschaft umgehen.
