Policy learning and cross‐national diffusion in social long‐term care insurance
Recently, many developed countries have moved toward comprehensive Long‐Term Care (LTC) systems. Along with the conventional explanations of these policy changes based on domestic factors, learning from abroad should be considered. We focus on the social insurance model of LTC, particularly how Japan learned from Germany and the Republic of Korea learned from Japan. Some approaches for how to think about policy learning in general as well as cros…
Chapter Thirty-Five. Politics of old-age policy-making
This chapter concentrates on three important areas: public pensions, medical care, and long-term care. By the turn of the millennium Japan's pension and health-care programs for older people had reached the standard of the rich nations. It explains on the policy-making process-in particular, the most important policy-change events over a fifty-year span. Periods of expansion alternated with periods of reform, and some policy changes were dominate…
Health Care Issues in the United States and Japan (review)
Reviewed by: Health Care Issues in the United States and Japan John Creighton Campbell (bio) and Naoki Ikegami (bio) Health Care Issues in the United States and Japan. Edited by David A. Wise and Naohiro Yashiro. University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2006. ix, 258 pages. $65.00. The American health-policy expert William Glaser once remarked that the United States has the best health economists in the world but the worst health care system; the qu…
Fragmentation and Power
In the 1980s, a wave of new–extremely clever and detailed–studies revolutionized the Japanese politics field. The empirical findings of this ‘new paradigm’ literature remain the conventional wisdom on Japanese policy-making patterns under the ‘1955 System’. In this paper, we offer a critical reinterpretation of the new paradigm literature. We do not offer new empirical analysis, but, rather, reconsider this conventional wisdom by putting a new sp…
The Health of Japan's Medical Care System
I would like to provide some context for the article "Patients Adrift: The Elderly and Japan's Life-Threatening Health Reforms" by Hiratate Hideaki, recently translated from Shukan Kinyobi for publication in Japan Focus. Japan has a long and honorable tradition of muckraking reporting on its medical care system. To illustrate that point with a personal anecdote: My colleague Naoki Ikegami and I published a book about a decade ago called Japan's M…
Doing Fieldwork in Japan
Doing Fieldwork in Japan taps the expertise of North American and European specialists on the practicalities of conducting long-term research in the social sciences and cultural studies. In lively first-person accounts, they discuss their successes and failures doing fieldwork across rural and urban Japan in a wide range of settings: among religious pilgrims and adolescent consumers; on factory assembly lines and in high schools and wholesale sea…
Japan's Radical Reform of Long‐term Care
Japan's mandatory long‐term care social insurance system started in 2000. Many important choices about the basic shape and size of the system, as well as a host of details, were necessary when the program was being planned. It represents a reversal from earlier steps toward a tax‐based direct‐service system, and is based on consumer choice of services and providers. The benefits are in the form of institutional or community‐based services, not ca…
Choices, Policy Logics and Problems in the Design of Long–term Care Systems
Establishing a public, comprehensive, independent, mainly community–based long–term care system, separate from medical care and social services, can lead to the provision of more effective and consumer–oriented services, and also to a more appropriate mix of public/private financing. Of the two main approaches to financing long–term care (LTC), a tax–based model is more flexible in providing benefits according to the individual’s need, since inco…
Long-Term Care Insurance Comes To Japan
PROLOGUE: Would-be Medicare reformers regularly emphasize the fact that population aging is expected to put severe stress on the Medicare budget over the coming decades. So familiar are the statistics on aging baby boomers that it is often lost on Americans that many other industrialized nations face even more dire predicaments. For example, while nearly 17 percent of U.S. citizens are expected to be over age sixty-five by the year 2020, Japan ha…
The Art of Balance in Health Policy
Compared to the rest of the world, Japan has a healthy population but pays relatively little for medical care. This book analyses how the health care works, and how it came into being. Taking a comparative perspective, the authors describe the politics of health care, the variety of providers, the universal health insurance system, and how the fee-schedule constrains costs at both the macro and micro levels. Special attention is paid to issues of…

Problems, Solutions, Non-Solutions, and Free Medical Care for the Elderly in Japan
I N 1973, the Japanese government, despite its conservative composition and general reputation for backwardness in social policy, decided to pay all the medical and hospital costs for nearly everyone aged 70 or over. Ten years later, in the midst of an apparent fiscal crisis, it enacted a Health Care for the Aged Law which purported to restrain costs and to establish a new health maintenance system, although in fact it did neither. The purpose of…

Conflict in Japan
Social and political conflict in postwar Japan is the subject of this volume, which draws together a series of field-based studies by North American and Japanese sociologists, anthropologists, and political scientists. It focuses attention on the sources of conflict and the ways in which conflict is expressed and managed. This book challenges the widely held theories stressing the harmony and vertical structure of social relations in Japan, which…
