Abstract

Known internationally for his research, writings and commentaries on the politics of modern and contemporary Japan, this two-volume work brings together much of his considerable archive of published as well as unpublished research over the past fifty years, some dating back to his early years as a scholar in the 1960's at ANU’s Department of Political Science. Structured thematically, Volume I comprises Part I: Japanese Foreign Policy; Part II: Australia-Japan Relations; Part III: Democracy in Japan and Asia; Volume II comprises Part I: Understanding Japanese Politics; Part II: Teaching and Research in Japanese Studies. Volume II complements his earlier Collected Writings which focuses specifically on the politics and political environment of Japan up to the date of publication (2004). J.A.A. Stockwin has also been a lead reviewer of new publications in his field; a list of his principal reviews together with a bibliography of his complete output can be found at the back of Volume II of this work. Both volumes are separately indexed.

Abstract

The politics of Japan are less widely reported than its economics. Most people are aware of the economic 'miracle' following the Second World War, whereby Japan became the second largest economy in the world after the United States, and the economic stagnation of the early 1990s is also well known. But it is difficult to make sense of these phenomena without a knowledge of the political system and the ways in which it works in practice. Containing an introductory essay, an essay on theories of Japanese politics and over 250 A-Z entries, the Dictionary of the Modern Politics of Japan r

Abstract

"In the 1980s the performance of Japan's economy was an international success story, and led many economists suggest that the 1990s would be a Japanese decade. Today however, the dominant view today is that Japan is inescapably on a downward slope. Rather than focusing on the evolution of the performance of Japanese capitalism, this book reflects on the changes that it has experienced over the past 30 years, and presents a comprehensive analysis of the great transformation of Japanese capitalism from the heights of the 1980s, through the lost decades of the 1990s, and well into the 21st century. This book posits an alternative analysis of the Japanese economic trajectory since the early 1980s, and argues that whereas policies inspired by neo-liberalism have been presented as a solution to the Japanese crisis, these policies have in fact been one of the causes of the problems that Japan has faced over the past thirty years. Crucially, this book seeks to understand the institutional and organisational changes that have characterised Japanese capitalism since the 1980s, and to highlight in comparative perspective, with reference to the 'neo-liberal moment', the nature of the transformation of Japanese capitalism. Indeed, the arguments presented in this book go well beyond Japan itself, and examine the diversity of capitalism, notably in continental Europe, which has experienced problems which in many ways are also comparable to those of Japan. The Great Transformation of Japanese Capitalism will appeal to students and scholars of both Japanese politics and economics, as well as those interested in comparative political economy"--
