Health and Globalization
Health and globalization have received tremendous attention in sociology. Aging and longevity are not the only reasons for its popularity, which is also influenced by the global health system, governance, and culture. The emergence of COVID‐19 has certainly contributed to the expansion of health research in globalization. Sociologists pay attention to the social stratifications of health status and other related variables created and affected by …
Neo-Ottomanism and Cool Japan in comparative perspective
Turkey and Japan have comparable histories of modernization beginning in the nineteenth century. They have since then produced modernities that are considered a mix of “Eastern” and “Western.” Over recent decades, both faced the question of what comes after modernity and began manufacturing their versions of authenticities and cultural exports. This paper comparatively locates two symptoms of this process. “Neo-Ottomanism” refers to the increasin…

Sexual Harassment Comes of Age: A Comparative Analysis of the United States and Japan
Public consciousness of sexual harassment, or sekuhara, emerged much later in Japan than in the United States. This article, the first comparative study of sexual harassment in the two nations, explores how consciousness of a new legal category diffuses across nations and begins to take root in younger cohorts. Analyses of the U.S. General Social Survey and the Japanese Survey on Working Women's Consciousness show how age cohorts entering the lab…
Sexual Harassment: The Emergence of Legal Consciousness in Japan and the US
In 2008, 8,140 women working in Japan brought sexual harassment or sekuhara claims to prefectural equal employment opportunity (EEO) offices. This represents 64% of the 12,782 EEO related reports that women made to regional governments - a large increase since 2005. Sekuhara in fact is the largest discrimination concern reported to EEO offices among employed women in Japan today. These numbers do not simply reflect difficult employment conditions…

The Effects of ‘Social Expectation’ on the Development of Civil Society in Japan
This paper proposes a theoretical explanation for the impact of ‘social expectation’ on the growth of civil society in Japan. Why has civil society developed as it has in Japan? Contrary to the image of Japan as a ‘strong and controlling’ nation-state, we find that private citizens—the non-governmental organization (NGO) leaders, scholars on community planning, and younger liberal politicians—set the conditions towards the growth of civil society…
