Book Synopsis Americanizing Japanese Firms by : Yukio Yotsumoto
Download or read book Americanizing Japanese Firms written by Yukio Yotsumoto and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americanizing Japanese Firms examines the concept of corporate social responsibility in Japanese manufacturing companies within the United States. The study compares the corporate philanthropy of Japanese companies against American and British companies. Specifically, the study investigates characteristics of Japanese companies that influence the level and nature of the corporate philanthropy undertaken. The relationship between size of the company and the level and nature of corporate social responsibility is also examined. Finally, the study explores how Japanese corporations learn about the American approach of corporate philanthropy. In his investigations, the author considered two contexts: first, the constitutions of Japan and the United States are analyzed at a national level to determine the position or importance of corporate philanthropy within the societies comparatively; and second, the communities in which corporations are located and act for social contribution are investigated.

Book Synopsis Americanization and its Limits by : Jonathan Zeitlin
Download or read book Americanization and its Limits written by Jonathan Zeitlin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-03-23 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a new and conceptually distinctive analysis of Americanization in European and Japanese industry after the Second World War, based on a rich set of sectoral and firm-based studies by an international group of distinguished scholars. The authors highlight the autonomous and creative role of local actors in selectively adapting US technology and management methods to suit local conditions and, strikingly, in creating new hybrid forms that combined indigenous and foreign practices in unforeseen and often remarkably competitive ways. Their findings will be of compelling interest not only to historians and social scientists concerned with the dynamics of post-war economic growth and industrial development, but also to those engaged in contemporary debates about the cross-national transfer and diffusion of productive models.

Book Synopsis Taiwan's Modernization: Americanization And Modernizing Confucian Manifestations by : Wei-bin Zhang
Download or read book Taiwan's Modernization: Americanization And Modernizing Confucian Manifestations written by Wei-bin Zhang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2003-07-14 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is part of a broad examination of Confucianism and its implications for modernization of the Confucian regions (covering mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Vietnam, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, and Singapore). It is mainly concerned with the industrialization and modernization of Taiwan. To help readers understand the process of modernization, the book provides an introduction to the history of Taiwan and to Confucianism and its modern implications. As far as social and economic principles are concerned, Taiwan's modernization is, according to the author, characterized by Americanization and modernizing Confucian manifestations. The book demonstrates that Taiwan has actually provided an important case study not only for the capitalist spirit of overseas Chinese, but also for possible implications of Confucianism for modernization. The unique character of this book is that in explaining Taiwan's modernization, it deals not only with economic and social issues, but also examines the philosophical foundations, an endeavor which no other author has systematically made before.

What are the reactions of Americans toward the Japanese expatriates? At the same time, the book looks at the profound impact that the Japanese have had on Southerners.
Book Synopsis Narrative Management in Corporate Japan by : Chie Yorozu
Download or read book Narrative Management in Corporate Japan written by Chie Yorozu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scandals and failures in some of the best known international Japanese-owned companies have shown that there is sometimes a considerable difference between the public and internal narratives of Japanese firms. This book explores the extent to which Japanese firms’ public claims reflect wider reality. Exploring how and why corporate narrative-management is ‘accepted’ or ‘rejected’ by external and internal audiences in Japan, the book clarifies what narrative-management means for Japanese organizations. It argues that the role of narrative-management has become much more prevalent in Japan in recent years, but that it does not serve quite the same role as it does in the Western environments where the theory and practice first emerged. The author presents interview-based case studies within four very different large Japanese organisations, all of which have deployed and loudly announced new restructuring plans based largely on Western models of corporate ‘best practice’. The book aims to describe and account for these Japanese corporate narratives, and asks what they are, why they are deployed and who believes in them. As the first narrative-related work in the Japanese context, this volume provides an insight into the development of Japanese narrative-management. It will appeal to students and scholars of Japanese Business, International Business and Organizational Studies.

Book Synopsis Inside Japanese Business: A Narrative History 1960-2000 by : Makota Ohtsu
Download or read book Inside Japanese Business: A Narrative History 1960-2000 written by Makota Ohtsu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sheds new light on Japanese management and its social consequences. Since the collapse of the Japanese bubble economy, the once acclaimed Japanese-style management has been under serious criticism both inside and outside Japan, but this is not a new phenomenon: over the last 50 years, evaluation of Japan and Japanese management has fluctuated widely between extreme affirmation and extreme negation. This study is unique because it is a longitudinal analysis that covers 35 years it uses firsthand information from managers in major Japanese corporations; and by involving several of these managers in the research process the views of actual practitioners are made available.
