Recreating Japanese Women, 1600-1945
In thirteen wide-ranging essays, scholars and students of Asian and women's studies will find a vivid exploration of how female roles and feminine identity have evolved over 350 years, from the Tokugawa era to the end of World War II. Starting from the premise that gender is not a biological given, but is socially constructed and culturally transmitted, the authors describe the forces of change in the construction of female gender and explore the…

Women in the Silk-reeling Industry in Nineteenth-century Japan
As the first and only country in Asia to industrialise in the nineteenth century Japan holds special fascination for theorists of development.1 Scholars have tried to explain Japan’s industrialisation by exploring numerous factors such as the role of the government’s industrial policy, the formation of a business ethos linked to nationalist ideology, and the availability of an agricultural surplus. However, few Western-language studies have focus…

In Japan as in the United States, family farming is on the wane, increasingly rejected by the younger generation in favor of more promising economic pursuits and more sophisticated comforts. Yet for centuries past, the village and the family farm have constituted the world of the vast majority of Japanese women, as of Japanese men. The dramatic economic and demographic developments of the past two decades have orced extensive changes in the lives…

Japanese Marxist: A Portrait of Kawakami Hajime, 1879-1946
It is the merit of Bernstein's portrait of Kawakami Hajime that he emerges as a recognizable human being, a truly modern figure reflecting in his own life a personal and hard-won balance between traditional Japanese values and the demands of modernization. The heir of a samurai family, an acknowledged authority on economics, a professor at one of Japan's leading universities, an early popularizer of Marxism in Japan, a Japanese Communist on his o…
