!!!社会行動科学特論: Employment and Labor Market in Japan, Winter Semester 2011-12
!!Course description
The aim of this class is to understand the organization of employment and labor markets in Japan. Japanese workers were considered to be the most hardworking, and the organization of employment was well-known, particularly in the international business circle, as Japanese management. In the last two decades, however, it was under pressure to change due to the processes of industrial structural change and globalization/liberalization, which poses an important economic sociological question: how (labor) markets are constructed and how they are changing? Taking distinctively sociological approach, this class attempts to understand employment and labor markets in Japan as historical and social constructs.
