Free Download Dr. James Reichert, "Literature for the Masses: Japanese Period Fiction, 1913-1941"
English | ISBN: 082489801X | 2025 | 354 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Literature for the Masses is the first English-language book on popular stories known in Japan alternatively as period fiction or mass literature. It highlights the important cultural and ideological work performed by this ubiquitous, yet overlooked, literary form. Focused on the years 1913 to 1941, which coincide exactly with the rise of industrial capitalism and mass culture in Japan, the book challenges the conventional wisdom that period-themed entertainment was an anachronistic holdover from the past. Through a close analysis of well-known examples of the genre, such as Nakazato Kaizan’s The Great Buddha Pass (1913-1921), Yoshikawa Eiji’s Miyamoto Musashi (1935-1939), and Mikami Otokichi’s The Transformation of Yukinojō (1934-1935), Reichert shows how these materials were thoroughly integrated into both the modern media ecosystem and the creative sphere of the written arts.

This book examines the ties between an epistemology of constant change and Japan’s formal emphasis on etiquette and visuality.

English | September 17, 2024 | ISBN: 023121653X | 392 pages | PDF | 4.04 Mb
A major Marxist thinker and critic in 1930s Japan, Tosaka Jun was among the world’s most incisive―yet underrecognized―theorists of capitalism, fascism, and ideology during the years before World War II. The Japanese Ideology is his masterpiece, first published in 1935, as Japan and the world plummeted into an age of reaction. Tosaka offers a ruthless philosophical critique of contemporary ideology that exposes liberalism’s deep complicity with fascism.

Free Download Japanese and German Enterprises: Comparison of Industrial Cocentration System and Business Management
English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819748798 | 553 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 6 MB
The objective of this book is to analyze and compare the processes of corporate expansion of postwar Japan and Germany. It examines the evolution of distinctive Japanese and German business management styles through the adoption of American management methods, thereby establishing a system of industrial concentration in contrast to the US de-concentration policy. This is the first time that the book draws on a range of topics related to business administration, including the concentration of enterprises, management and production systems, management education, marketing, organizational structure, and corporate governance. The book compares the Japanese and German models. Japanese enterprises developed a management style that was suitable for American and Japanese markets, in part due to the underdeveloped Asian markets. Meanwhile, German enterprises established a management style for European markets. The book considers the specificities of the Japanese management model, predicated on thorough cost reduction and few product defects. In contrast, the German management model placed a premium on differentiation based on product quality and functionality, with a particular focus on core markets and the skills of the workforce.

Free Download Shawn Bender, "Feeling Machines: Japanese Robotics and the Global Entanglements of More-Than-Human Care"
English | ISBN: 1503641155 | 2024 | 254 pages | PDF | 9 MB
In recent years, debates over healthcare have accompanied rapid advances in technology, from the expansion of telehealth services to artificial intelligence driven diagnostics. In this book, Shawn Bender delves into the world of Japanese robots engineered for care. Care robots (kaigo robotto) emerged early in the 21st century, when roboticists began converting assembly line technologies into responsive machines for older adults and people with disabilities. These robots are meant to be felt and programmed to feel. While some greet them with enthusiasm, others fear that they might replace a fundamentally human task. Based on fieldwork in Japan, Denmark, and Germany, Bender traces the emergence of care robots in Japan and examines their impact on therapeutic practice around the world. Social science scholarship on robotics tends to be either speculative-imagining life together with robots-or experimental-observing robot-human interaction in laboratories or through short-term field studies. Instead, Bender follows roboticists developing technologies in Japan, and travels with the robots themselves into everyday sites of care, tracking the integration of robots into institutional care and the connection of care practice to robotics development. By exploring the application of Japanese robotics across the globe,
