Abstract

During the 1990s Japan's phenomenal economic growth ground to a halt and the country was crippled by ongoing political, economic and social problems. In this book, the author argues that when Japan emerges from these manifold problems it may well be an even stronger society than before.

Abstract

This book has been specifically designed to introduce students to Japan's foreign relations in Asia since 1990, a period in which there have been dramatic developments in Japan, including the reinterpretation of the Constitution and expanded US-Japan defence cooperation. The geopolitical dynamics and implications of these new developments are profound and underscore the need for a new textbook on this subject. Covering not only the key regional players of China and the Koreas, this textbook also encompasses chapters on Japan's relations with India, Myanmar, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Thailand, along with its multilateral engagement and initiatives. Combined with transnational chapters on critical issues, key themes covered by this book include : an historical overview of key post-war developments; Japan's evolving security policy; analysis of the region's escalating maritime disputes; an evaluation of Japanese soft power in Asia.

Abstract

"Japan in the Heisei Era (1989-2019) provides a retrospective and multidisciplinary account of a society in flux. Featuring analyses from leading scholars around the globe, this textbook examines the evolving contexts of Japan throughout the Heisei era and how longstanding verities and values are being called into question. Asking what this holds for future relations with the world and within its own communities, chapters delve into the layers of a complex and increasingly diverse society in the contexts of simmering ethnonationalism, economic torpor, political stagnation and cultural dynamics. Features in this textbook include: Analysis of key issues ranging from immigration, civil society, press freedom, politics, labour and the economy, diversity, the marginalization of women, Shinto, and Aum Shinrikyo Evaluation of the impact of Emperor Akihito on war memory, the imperial institution, art, regional relations and constitutional revision Multidisciplinary insights from both the social sciences and humanities Rich illustrations for visual analysis of developments in literature, film, art, and pop culture and what they reveal about contemporary Japan Providing students with dynamic analyses of how contemporary Japanese society continues to transform, this textbook will be essential reading for students of Japanese Studies, including Japanese culture, society, history and politics"--
