ASIA’S TRANSFORMATIONS
Transcultural Japan
Asia’s Transformations
At the Borderlands of Race, Gender and Identity
Pan-Asianism in Modern Japanese History
Series Editor: Mark Selden, Binghamton and Cornell Universities, USA
Edited by David Blake Willis, Soai University, Japan and Stephen Murphy-Shigematsu, University of Tokyo, Japan and Stanford University, USA
Colonialism, Regionalism and Borders
The books in this series explore the political, social, economic and cultural consequences of Asia’s twenty-first century transformations. The series emphasizes the tumultuous interplay of local, national, regional and global forces as Asia bids to become the hub of the world economy. While focusing on the contemporary, it also looks back to analyze the antecedents of Asia’s contested rise. Asia’s Transformations aims to address the needs of students and teachers.
Transcultural Japan provides a critical examination of mixed and pure, of becoming and being Other in Japan, of the multiple intersections of identities (cultural, class, gender, race, ethnicity, etc.) and the narratives and conversations about these identities.
’The fifteen essays in this volume take the debate beyond how the ideology was instrumentalized and draw our attention to the intellectual history of Pan Asianism and how it morphed over the past century. These are detailed and complex scholarly essays that help readers understand that Pan Asianism was neither monolithic nor set in concrete.’ - The JapanTimes Online

Jeff Kingston, Temple University, USA ’Kingston has provided a well researched and also readable synthesis of developments in Japan since the collapse of the bubble economy in 1989 .... The fact that Kingston happens to be a rare example of an academician who can combine sound analysis with entertaining prose makes it possible to recommend this book to just about anyone interested in contemporary Japan.’ International Herald Tribune The 1990s have been termed as ’Japan’s lost decade’ to describe how the phenomenal growth in the Japanese economy ground to a halt and the country was crippled by enormous and ongoing political, economic and social problems. In responding to these unprecedented difficulties, wide-ranging reforms have been adopted including NPO, information disclosure and judicial reform legislation. Controversially, this book argues that such reforms are creating a more robust civil society and demonstrate that Japan is far more dynamic than is generally recognized. Selected Contents: Part 1 1.

2ND EDITION
Rethinking Modern Japan
Modern Japan
Politics, Economics, Identity
A Social and Political History
Terry Narramore, University of Tasmania, Australia
Elise K. Tipton, University of Sydney, Australia
Rethinking Modern Japan is an accessible introduction to Japanese politics and society which combines both political and cultural studies approaches to understanding Japan. It explores the significant interaction between Japanese identity (cultural, national, regional, ethnic, gender-based) and the political (management, political economy, financial reform). Each chapter introduces the subject and gives an overview of the key literature in the area. The unique combination of cultural theory and conventional political analysis makes the book both contemporary and attractive to students.
Praise for the first edition: ’This is a history textbook with a ’difference’. Here modern Japan emerges in all its complexity and heterogeneity. The text keeps pace with the interest of tertiary students today in its focus on a broad range of people and topics including changing architecture, town planning, tastes, fashion, popular culture, entertainment, and more.’ - Hélène Bowen Raddeker, UNSW, Sydney, Australia ’Elise Tipton has produced a lively and compelling synthesis, full of human interest and interpretative insight, of modern Japanese social and political history down to recent times. Her narrative of what Japan’s modern trajectory has meant for women and minorities whose experience has been too-long neglected is especially unforgettable. This is an excellent book. I recommend it wholeheartedly.’ - Stephen S. Large, University of Cambridge, UK This thoroughly updated second edition of Modern Japan provides a concise and fascinating introduction to the social, cultural and political history of modern Japan. Ranging from the Tokugawa period to the present day, the book charts the country’s evolution into a modernized, economic and political world power. Dealing with a broad and stimulating range of topics in an engaging style that will appeal to university students and the general reader, this book weaves social and political developments and balances a micro with a macro approach, introducing details about everyday lives that shed light on the bigger picture of major historical changes. Its systematic attention to gender issues, minorities and popular culture distinguishes this history and contributes to a sense of the complexity and diversity of modern Japanese society.

Japan’s Security Identity
2ND EDITION
From a Peace-State to an International-State
Japan’s Minorities
Bhubhindar Singh, University of Sheffield, UK
The Illusion of Homogeneity
This volume examines Japanese post-Cold War security policy, analyzing how Japan reacted to the end of the Cold War, the results of the transformation in the post-Cold War security environment, and exactly how Japanese security has changed from its Cold War design.
Edited by Michael Weiner, Soka University of America, USA Based on original research, Japan’s Minorities provides a clear historical introduction to the formation of individual minorities, followed by an analysis of the contemporary situation. This second edition identifies and explores the six principal minority groups in Japan: the Ainu, the Burakumin, the Chinese, the Koreans, the Nikkeijin and the Okinawans. Examining the ways in which the Japanese have manipulated historical events, such as Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the contributors reveal the presence of an underlying concept of ‘Japaneseness’ that excludes members of these minorities. The book addresses key themes including: •the role of this ideology of ‘race’ in the construction of the Japanese identity

Representing the Other in Modern Japanese Literature
Nationalisms in Japan Edited by Naoko Shimazu, Birkbeck, University of London, UK
A Critical Approach Edited by Rachael Hutchinson, University of Pennsylvania, USA and Mark Williams, University of Leeds, UK Representing the Other in Modern Japanese Literature looks at the ways in which authors writing in Japanese in the twentieth century constructed a division between the ‘Self’ and the ‘Other’ in their work. Drawing on methodology from Foucault and Lacan, the clearly presented essays seek to show how Japanese writers have responded to the central question of what it means to be ‘Japanese’ and of how best to define their identity. Taking geographical, racial and ethnic identity as a starting point to explore Japan’s vision of ’nonJapan’, representations of the Other are examined in terms of the experiences of Japanese authors abroad and in the imaginary lands envisioned by authors in Japan. Selected Contents: Introduction 1. Hermes and Hermés: Othernesses in Modern Japanese Literature 2. Meet Me on the Other Side: Strategies of Otherness in Modern Japanese Literature Part 1: External Others 3. Who Holds the Whip? Power and Critique in Nagai Kafu’s Tales of America 4.

East Asian Regionalism
Formerly edited by Michael Leifer, London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London, UK
Christopher M. Dent, University of Leeds, UK East Asia is a region that holds much fascination for many people. It is one of the world’s most dynamic and diverse regions and is also becoming an increasingly coherent region through the inter-play of various integrative economic, political and socio-cultural processes. Such a development is generally referred to as ’regionalism’, which itself has become a defining feature of the contemporary international system, and this book explores the various ways in which East Asian regionalism continues to deepen.
Politics in Asia has long been established as a source of distinctive and authoritative studies on the political life of Asia. The series covers a broad range of countries and aspects of politics, and includes volumes from some of the leading scholars working in the field.

A Rising China and Security in East Asia Identity Construction and Security Discourse Rex Li, Liverpool John Moores University, UK This volume provides a systematic and in-depth analysis of the security discourse of Chinese élites on the major powers in East Asia – namely the United States, Japan and Russia – since 1989, focusing on how they perceive the three countries’ global security strategy and Asia-Pacific strategy in particular. The central argument of the book is that the security perceptions of Chinese policy analysts are closely linked to their conception of China’s identity and their desire and efforts to construct a great power identity for China. Rex Li also demonstrates that PRC policy élites perceive the power, aspirations and security strategies of other East Asian powers primarily in terms of their implications for China’s pursuit of a great power status in the twenty-first century. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction 2. Chinese Security Perceptions of the USA: George Bush Snr and Bill Clinton Presidencies 3. Chinese Security Perceptions of the USA: George W. Bush Presidency 4. Japan’s Global Strategy and its Security Strategy in the Asia-Pacific Region 5. Russia’s Post-Cold War Global Strategy and its Security Strategy in East Asia 6.

Rethinking Japanese Security Internal and External Dimensions Peter J. Katzenstein, Cornell University, USA Series: Security and Governance Since the unexpected end of the Cold War, standard arguments about power politics can no longer be adopted uncritically. This has led to a renewed interest in Japan’s unusually peaceful security policy. Japan’s championing of ’comprehensive security’ is central to this collection. Peter J. Katzenstein’s essays explore this concept which not only encompasses traditional military concerns but also domestic aspects of security. The book’s focus on counterterrorism and national security highlights a policy approach which, over decades, Japan has developed with political patience and diplomatic finesse. These essays advocate an eclectic approach that helps in recognizing new questions and that seek to combine elements from different analytical perspectives in the exploration of novel lines of argument. Additionally, the book features an entirely new, substantial introduction that explores and elaborates the themes of the collection while bringing it up to date. This collection will be of significant interest to students and scholars of Japanese politics, security studies and international relations. Selected Contents: 1. Japanese Security in Perspective Peter J. Katzenstein 2. Japan, Asian-Pacific Security, and the Case for Analytical Eclecticism Peter J.

Routledge/Leiden Series in Modern East Asian History and Politics Re-Politicising the Kyoto School as Philosophy
Series Editor: Rikki Kersten, Australian National University, Australia
Cultural Governance and Resistance in Pacific Asia William A. Callahan, University of Manchester, UK This comprehensive text examines the politics of culture and the culture of politics in Pacific Asia. It addresses the dynamics between Asian studies and cultural studies, and explores the overlap between comparative politics and international relations.
Edited by Christopher Goto-Jones, Leiden University, the Netherlands
Through addressing ideas about history and politics in the modern period, and by encouraging comparative and inter-disciplinary work amongst East Asian specialists, the Leiden Series in Modern East Asian History and Politics seeks to combine Area Studies’ focus on primary sources in the vernacular, with a distinct disciplinary edge.
Rather than focusing on the Kyoto School’s wartime legacy, this original study examines the philosophical texts of the members of the Kyoto School, proving that they developed serious and sophisticated positions on many key questions of political philosophy.
The Leiden Series focuses on philosophy, politics, political thought, history, the history of ideas, and foreign policy as they relate to modern East Asia, and will emphasize theoretical approaches in all of these fields. As well as single-authored volumes, edited or multi-authored submissions that bring together a range of country specializations and disciplines are welcome.

Japanese Economic Development Markets, Norms, Structures
The Arc of Japan’s Economic Development
Carl Mosk, University of Victoria, Canada
Arthur Alexander, Georgetown University, USA
The Economic Geography of Contemporary Japan Bart van der Knaap, Erasmus School of Economics, the Netherlands This user-friendly textbook provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic geography of contemporary Japan. Ranging from the post-war period to prospects for the future, and with chapters on key factors such as agriculture, demography, transportation, industrialization, labour markets, energy, regional development and urbanization, Bart van der Knapp explores the regional dynamics of Japan by analyzing the evolution of three interrelated transformations: •the transformation of a rural society towards an industrial society •the transformation of the industrial economy and an emerging urban society •the transformation of the urban society towards a service economy. Highly illustrated and including many pedagogical features, this book will appeal to students of Japanese economic geography and development. Selected Contents: 1. Culture, History and Regional Identity: An Introduction 2. Population Growth and Distribution 3. Investments in Transport Infrastructure and Regional Development 4. The Second Rural Transformation: The Final Phase 5. Emerging Early Industrialisation 6. Post War Industrial Growth and Change 7. Labour Market Dynamics since 1945 Towards an Aging Population 8. Energy and Industrial Transformation 9. Growing Environmental Awareness and Rapid Industrial Growth 10. Regional Development and Industrial Policy 11. The Growth of Producer Services and the Information Economy 12. The Japanese Urban System 13. Tokyo: A World City in the 21st Century 14. Japanese Integration in the World Economy
This core textbook is the definitive overview of the Japanese economy. It charts its history from the period before the Meiji restoration and its astonishing growth throughout the twentieth century before conducting a thorough analysis of the contemporary scene and the implications of the ongoing financial crisis.
Japanese Economic Development presents three distinct approaches to understanding how and why Japan made the transition from a relatively low-income country mainly focused on agriculture to a high-income nation centred on manufacturing and services. In offering an eclectic account of Japan’s economic development, this book appeals to students in a broad group of disciplines including economics, political science, sociology, geography and history. It makes a case for ’over determination’ in economic behaviour. Because individual, firm level, and governmental behaviour is simultaneously determined by the interaction of markets, norms, and structures, change over time is rarely, if ever, limited to the economy operating in isolation from social norms and structures. Selected Contents: 1. Markets, Norms, Structures 2. Before Industrialization 3. Meeting the Western Challenge 4. Infrastructure and Heavy Industry 5. Reform and Renewal 6.

Donald W. Katzner, University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA Series: Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy ’In this volume of essays Donald Katzner probes the cultural foundations of western economic theory. He argues that the predictive power of standard economic models depends on the relevance of behavioural assumptions that are culturally quite specific and, taking the case of Japan, he shows that where the culture is different, standard models fail badly. As always, his work is both thought-provoking and challenging.’ - Charles Perrings, Arizona State University, USA Culture plays an important role in shaping the nature and content of economics. This fascinating book compares the two cultures of Japan and the United States and provides insights into the economic workings and differences between the two nations.

Japan Anthropology Workshop Series Series Editor: Joy Hendry, Oxford Brookes University, UK A key aim of the series is to present studies that offer a deep understanding of aspects of Japanese society and culture to offset the impression of constant change and frivolity that so tempts the mass media around the world. Living in Japan brings anyone into contact with the fervent mood of change, and former residents from many other countries enjoy reading about their temporary home, but there is a demand also to penetrate less obvious elements of this temporary life. Anthropologists specialize in digging beneath the surface, in peeling off and examining layers of cultural wrapping, and in gaining an understanding of language and communication that goes beyond formal presentation and informal frolicking. This series will help to open the eyes of readers around the world from many backgrounds to the work of these diligent anthropologists researching the social life of Japan.

Modern Japanese Culture and Society
This study examines developments in support for victims of crime in Asia. It shows how, contrary to the widely-held belief that Asian jurisdictions shy away from a rights based approach, there has been considerable progress in support for victims of crime in Asia, especially in Thailand and Korea, where rights for victims of crime are entrenched in constitutional provisions, and in Taiwan and Japan. Support for Victims of Crime in Asia discusses international developments, the degree to which support for victims of crime is an import into Asia from the West, and developments in a range of countries, including Thailand, Korea, Taiwan and Japan, India, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

Curzon was a man of considerable intellect and ambition, becoming both Viceroy of India at a crucial time for the colony (1898–1905), and British Foreign Secretary after the First World War. He was also a prolific writer. His output of books, articles, and speeches was extensive, while the official documents that he produced reveal his close attention to even minor aspects of his responsibilities. Some of his speeches and articles were concerned with British political affairs; the majority, however, stemmed from his global travels and his time as Viceroy of India. This new collection brings together Curzon’s most interesting and influential writings on Asian and Middle Eastern themes.

Robert Ellwood explores the religious heritage of this fascinating country, from the dawn of spirituality to the present day. He gives special attention to the traditions of Shinto, the different forms of Buddhism in Japan, including Shingon and Tendai, and Confucianism.

Each religion is clearly described in terms of its history, practice, sociology and organization, and Ellwood emphasizes how in practice Japanese religion interacts and intermingles. Finally, Ellwood discusses the influence of Japan on popular culture, including discussion of animé, and the transmission of Japanese spiritual, mythical and religious themes to the rest of the world. Introducing Japanese Religion also includes illustrations, lively quotations from original sources, learning goals, summary boxes, questions for discussion, suggestions for further reading and a glossary to aid study and revision.

TEXTBOOK 2ND EDITION
Series: Routledge Classics ’Read the books of D.T. Suzuki.’ - Jack Kerouac
Edited by Youru Wang, Rowan University, USA Series: Routledge Studies in Asian Religion and Philosophy The striking parallels between Derrida’s deconstruction and certain strategies eschewing oppositional hierarchies in Asian thought, especially in Buddhism and Daoism, have attracted much attention from scholars of both Western and Asian philosophy. This volume contributes to this discussion by focusing on the ethical dimension and function of deconstruction in Asian thought. Selected Contents: Introduction Part 1: Ethical Dimension and Deconstruction of Normative Ethics in Asian Traditions 1. Dismantling Normativity in Indian Ethics - From Vedic Altarity to the Gita’s Alterity 2. Deconstruction, Aporia and Justice in Nagarjuna’s Empty Ethics 3. Zhuangzi’s Ethics of Deconstructing Moralistic Self-Imprisonment: Standards without Standards 4. Deconstructing Karma and the Aporia of the Ethical in Hongzhou Chan Buddhism 5. The Ethics of Being and Non-Being: Confucian Contestations on Human Nature (Xing) in Late Imperial China 6. Lacking Ethics 7. The Ethical and the Non-Ethical: Nishida’s Methodic Subversion Part 2: Similarities and Differences between Derridean-Levinasian and Asian Ethical Thought 8. Ethics and the Subversion of Conceptual Reification in Levinas and Santideva 9. Levinas and Laozi on the Deconstruction of Ethics 10. Hongzhou Chan Buddhism, and Derrida Late and Early: Justice, Ethics, and Karma 11. Transgression and Ethics of Tension: Wonhyo and Derrida on Institutional Authority 12. The Ethics of Attainment: The Meaning of the Ethical in Dogen and Derrida
If the Western world knows anything about Zen Buddhism, it is down to the efforts of one remarkable man, D.T. Suzuki. The twenty-seven year-old Japanese scholar first visited the West in 1897, and over the course of the next seventy years became the world’s leading authority on Zen. His radical and penetrating insights earned him many disciples, from Carl Jung to Allen Ginsberg, from Thomas Merton to John Cage. In Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist, Suzuki compares the teachings of the great Christian mystic Meister Eckhart with the spiritual wisdom of Shin and Zen Buddhism. By juxtaposing cultures that seem to be radically opposed, Suzuki raises one of the fundamental questions of human experience: at the limits of our understanding is there an experience that is universal to all humanity? Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist is a book that challenges and inspires; it will benefit readers of all religions who seek to understand something of the nature of spiritual life. 2002: 198x129: 208pp Pb: 978-0-415-28586-5: £8.99 • AVAILABLE AS AN INSPECTION COPY
