Reworking Japan: Changing Men at Work and Play under Neoliberalism by Nana Okura Gagné(Gagne)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 10 MB
Overview: Reworking Japan examines how the past several decades of neoliberal economic restructuring and reforms have challenged Japan’s corporate ideologies, gendered relations, and subjectivities of individual employees. With Japan’s remarkable economic growth since the 1950s, the lifestyles and life courses of “salarymen” came to embody the “New Middle Class” family ideal. However, the nearly three decades of economic stagnation and reforms since the bursting of the economic bubble in the early 1990s has intensified corporate retrenchment under the banner of neoliberal restructuring and brought new challenges to employees and their previously protected livelihoods. In a sweeping appraisal of recent history, Gagné demonstrates how economic restructuring has reshaped Japanese corporations, workers, and ideals, as well as how Japanese companies and employees have resisted and actively responded to such changes.
