Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1997. This book is addressed to two kinds of readers: to social theorists,
on the grounds that the Japanese experience is or should be of
particular relevance to their problems, and to scholars working
on Japanese history, culture and society, in the hope that the
theoretical interpretations outlined below may be of some interest
to them.
