Migrant Workers In Japan

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

First Published in 1995. The issue of foreign workers in Japan has already reached a turning point, as they are quickly changing from a flow into a group of settled residents. This change has been accompanied by a great deal of research in Japan, but there have been precious few attempts to grasp the problem in a unified manner, and this book, based on the author's own field research, represents such an attempt.
