In order to achieve this, the Handbook is organized into two parts. Part I, Foundations', clarifies the state of contemporary Japan topic by topic by referring to the latest theoretical developments in the relevant disciplinary fields of politics, international relations, economy, society, culture and the personal. Part II, Issues', then offers a series of concrete analyses building upon the theoretical discussions introduced in Part I to help undergraduate and postgraduate students learn how to conduct independent analysis. Locating Japan in a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective, this Handbook is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in Japanese studies, Asian studies and global studies OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record HTTP:URL=https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315544748 Information=Taylor & Francis |
