Looks at many contemporary concerns and issues in Japan - exploring its history, economy, politics, and culture
Examines what it means to call Japan a 'modern' society, and what 'modern' has meant to the Japanese
Debunks many myths, for example explaining how Japan was never completely isolated from the outside world: even during the long period of so-called sakoku (isolationism, 1601-1853)
Examines the continuity between pre-Pacific War Japan, and post-war Japan
Japan is arguably today's most successful industrial economy, combining almost unprecedented affluence with social stability and apparent harmony. Japanese goods and cultural products are consumed all over the world, ranging from animated movies and computer games all the way through to cars, semiconductors, and management techniques. In many ways, Japan is an icon of the modern world, and yet it remains something of an enigma to many, who see it as a confusing montage of the alien and the familiar, the ancient and modern. The aim of this Very Short Introduction is to explode the myths and explore the reality of modern Japan - by taking a concise look at its history, economy, politics, and culture.
Readership: Anyone with an interest in modern Japan, including tourists, policymakers, business people, students, and academics. The book is a quick way to get up to speed on debates on modern Japan without having to tackle a lot of specialist literature.
Christopher Goto-Jones, Professor of Modern Japan Studies, University of Leiden
日本人参拜靖国神社真没什么好大惊小怪呀,他们是想快点摆脱历史包袱move on,而非“真心”道歉 (这听来确实很日本)。然而书里也说国家不是可以随意人格化的,那种强迫别国道歉、否则就说该国家“人格分裂”的亚洲国家窝觉得很不可思议。
评分好歹学到点知识

评分很清晰地梳理了日本现代化的发展脉络,补充了自己关于日本历史知识的空缺,对于曾经想不通的问题也有了一些理解。是很好的入门科普书。
评分Succinct and Beautiful. The history of the emergence of a modern country.
即便那些日本评论家们“由此及彼”动辄比较的陈词滥调早就让人心生厌倦厌倦,但越是深入地研究进入日本的历史,就会越觉得日本的中国的共同点确实贯穿了古代、现代、当代,历史、文化、社会和经济,就会越发觉得——有这样一个镜子一般的对照组实在是太过于绝妙了,而即使是中...
评分 评分这其实算我解答疑惑的一本书,自从看了《菊与刀》这本人类学著作后,就对日本在二战后的发展十分感兴趣。 《菊与刀》着重将日本人刻画成矛盾的结合体:即忠诚又背叛,即坚忍同时又反抗,即热爱艺术怀有浪漫气息,又充满了残忍狡诈的勇武。日本人的性格被凝...
评分作为毗邻中国的日本,我们真的有深入的研究了解过他的历史吗?同源文化衍生出如此大相庭径的当代社会,让人不禁感叹,所谓社会的现代性,导致因素更多的是代表工业革命的西方性还是源于东亚文化的武士道精神及神道教的文化因素?好像已经很久没有看过学术性的小册子,谈不上通...
