Abstract:
The story of the Japanese system, held up as a model for economic prosperity and growth, underplays the role of non-standard labour in the narrative of `success'. Our analysis deconstructs the narrative of the Japanese economic miracle to shed light on this almost invisible pillar by tracing the historical development of non-standard employment among women. We find that this form of work constitutes a larger and faster growing share of total employment than heretofore realised, and that women account for most of the change. Rather than merely a residual dimension of Japanese employment practic

Japan’s population decline is destabilising the national labour market. In response to the demographic threat, in April 2019 the Japanese Ministry of Justice officially introduced the new Specified Skilled Worker policy. This ‘temporary’ labour migration programme was designed to alleviate the domestic labour shortage by intensifying the acquisition of global human resources. Yet whether this political measure is capable of reducing the deficit remains to be seen. By reviewing the government’s prior and current labour supply strategies, this study aims to assess the policy’s potential to contr

In this paper, we provide explicit critical comparisons of two very important and successful regional emissions trading schemes: California and Tokyo. We focus on the contrasts of the different rules and functioning of the carbon credit trading markets. We also compare the carbon leakages and the compliance of the two schemes. We highlight the “negative” carbon leakage and the voluntary compliance associated with the Tokyo- Saitama Prefecture schemes. Finally, we provide a formal model linking some “unique” Japanese labour market practices to the incentives facing the Japanese facilities.

Japanese economy grew steadily in 2016. However, household consumption remained weak and inflation was far below the 2% target. The Japanese government substantially adjusted both monetary and fiscal policies to support economic growth. Despite a tight labour market, the meagre increase in base salary could not stimulate consumption. However, Japan remains an affluent society, with a large amount of liquid assets and relatively low debts. Japanese overseas assets have risen significantly and is a major source of national income.

In the postwar period, Japanese workers came to symbolize the economic and cultural prosperity of Japan.

However, nearly 30 years of economic recession and neo-liberal reforms have undermined the postwar model of corporate welfarism.

Abstract:
United States (US) based research suggests that distance between residency and employment constrains labour market outcomes for black Americans. Work on this phenomenon, termed spatial mismatch, suggests that residential segregation from whites shapes labour market outcomes among blacks by restricting access to job-dense suburbs. However, few studies examine patterns and drivers of spatial mismatch among Asian and Hispanic subpopulations. Using data on job counts from the 2010 Zip Code Business Patterns data set and on population counts from the 2010 US decennial Censuses, I estimate spatial m

AbstractDespite the fact that women's rights have been increasingly defined as equal to men's in law and policy, in post-Second World War Japan women continue to be at a disadvantage in many aspects of social and economic life. Drawing from a survey of 2,205 Japanese women, this article focuses in particular on women's home ownership as a new catalyst behind increasing social stratification in Japan. The women's experiences are closely linked to Japan's institutional ‘familism’: the development of social policy that has been explicitly connected to the male-breadwinner model. We argue that a w

Abstract:
AbstractThe legal- and law-related-services market is undergoing significant transformation: it is being expanded and becoming highly competitive, affected by the cultural and economic diversification of the current world society. In Japan, another aspect must be considered in order to clearly understand this transformation. In addition to fully qualified legal professionals, or bengoshi, there are many different certified law-related practitioners such as shihō shoshi (judicial scriveners), gyōsei shoshi (administrative scriveners), zeirishi (certified public tax attorneys), benrishi (patent

Abstract:
This paper examines conditions of social exclusion and attempts at social inclusion in Japan from a housing perspective. Companies, households and the government have previously supported housing in Japan. However, corporate welfare was withdrawn following the globalization of the economy from the 1990s onwards, support from families and communities declined due to a reduction in household size, and governmental housing support has shifted away from direct support. A reduction in income and unstable work left many people with unstable housing. Certain workers, such as foreigners performing dis
