Japanese Corporate Transition in Time and Space
To write is, in a sense, to commit an act of violence. Writing freezes the flow of time in the form of words on pages, when in reality nothing stays the same as before. With the advent of postmodernist thinking, an increasing number of researchers have become more conscious of this dilemma of writing. Many have sought to undertake the inherently difficult task of analyzing reality in its entirety of variability and volatility. Tomoko Kurihara's w…
The Too-Good Wife
When I published Office Ladies and Salaried Men in 1998 (Ogasawara 1998), somebody mentioned we already have enough English books on Japanese women.

Office Ladies and Salaried Men
The Remaking of the Japanese Working Class
THE ASHIO RIOT OF 1907 and Office Ladies and Salaried Men are two works that appear to have little in common. Kazuo Nimura's historical study considers the world of tough Japanese copper miners, all of them men, who rioted nearly a century ago while Yuko Ogasawara's sociological exploration of contemporary Japanese clerical workers focuses on the corporate office flowers, women usually described as defenceless and perennially exploited. But these…

Meanings of Chocolate
Valentine's Day as practiced in contemporary Japan constitutes a cultural puzzle. Comparison of Japanese and American Valentine's Days using data collected through interviews with twenty Japanese and twenty Americans reveals three customs peculiar to the Japanese holiday: an emphasis on chocolate; exclusively women‐to‐men gift giving; and the prevalence of giving “obligatory chocolate” within offices. Although chocolate companies' promotional act…
