Book Synopsis Women in India & Japan by : Ramesh Madan
Download or read book Women in India & Japan written by Ramesh Madan and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focuses mainly on urban, middle class, educated, employed women in Japan and India because they are most likely to have been affected by social, economic and political changes. Though numerically small, they are the opinion formers. The study aims to find out how far education and employment empower women? To what extent is education an agent of social change? In order to do this, it will look at the following aspects: women s education, its growth and its quality; employment patterns; how far employment affects women s status within the family; problems women face in work situations; how far participation of women in activities outside home in the public sphere has changed their role and position in the family; the impact of modern technology on women s lives; the impact of various legislative measures and the role of women s voluntary organisations.
Book Synopsis Indian Migrants in Tokyo by : Megha Wadhwa
Download or read book Indian Migrants in Tokyo written by Megha Wadhwa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does an extended stay in Japan influence Indian migrants’ sense of their identity as they adapt to a country very different from their own? The number of Indians in Japan is increasing. The links between Japan and India go back a long way in history, and the intricacy of their cultures is one of the many factors they have in common. Japanese culture and customs are among the most distinctive and complex in the world, and it is often difficult for foreigners to get used to them. Wadhwa focuses on the Indian Diaspora in Tokyo, analysing their lives there by drawing on a wealth of interviews and extensive participant observation. She examines their lifestyles, fears, problems, relations and expectations as foreigners in Tokyo and their efforts to create a 'home away from home' in Japan. This book will be of great interest to anthropologists and sociologists concerned with the impact of migration on diaspora communities, especially those focused on Japan, India or both.

Book Synopsis Women in Asia by : Barbara N. Ramusack
Download or read book Women in Asia written by Barbara N. Ramusack and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1999-06-22 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara N. Ramusack writes on South and Southeast Asia, surveying both the prescriptive roles and the lived experiences of women, as well as the construction of gender from early states to the 1990s. Although both regions are home to Hindu, Buddhist, and Muslim religious traditions and had extended trade relations, they reveal striking differences in the status and roles of women and the processes of cultural adaptation. Sharon Sievers presents an verview of women's participation in the histories of China, Japan, and Korea from prehistory to the modern period that provides a framework for incorporating women into world history classrooms. It offers analyses on major issues derived from recent research and discusses such stereotypical cultural practices as footbinding (long seen as "exotic" in the West) in the context of women's lives.

Book Synopsis The Journey of a Bengali Woman to Japan by : Hariprabha Takeda
Download or read book The Journey of a Bengali Woman to Japan written by Hariprabha Takeda and published by Jadavpur University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four years before Rabindranath Tagore went to Japan, a young woman sailed from Bengal over the feared kalapani seas to meet her Japanese husband’s family. Hariprabha Mallick had married Oemon Takeda in the liberal melieu of the Brahmo Samaj in the early 1900s. Her sojourn among her Japanese in-laws gave her another family in a different language, one who could communicate with her only in the language of the heart. She wrote about her experience of this interpersonal and cultural encounter, and travelled to Japan at least two more times. During the Second World War, she served as the Bengali voice of Radio Tokyo at the request of Rashbehari Bose. Translated in this volume from the original Bengali, Hariprabha Takeda’s writing provides an account of Japan a century ago, seen through the eyes of a naive, yet perceptive and altogether extraordinary young woman. Three essays by Hariprabha Takeda have been translated for this volume, along with a wealth of other archival material about her life and times.

Book Synopsis Japan's Far More Female Future by : Bill Emmott
Download or read book Japan's Far More Female Future written by Bill Emmott and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Japan on show in the 2019 Rugby World Cup was an admirably safe, stable, resilient, and efficient society. However, that appearance disguises crucial vulnerabilities and social ailments, including an ageing and shrinking population, slow productivity growth, a new low-wage, insecure workforce, declining marriage and fertility rates, and an extreme level of gender inequality. Within this gender gap lies the key both to the ailments and the cure. A deterioration in the use of human capital and a decline in family formation have become entrenched thanks to discrimination against the female half of the population. Yet gradual change is occurring, thanks not only to demographic necessity but also to a significant rise in female access to university education since the 1990s and the emergence of a wide range of role models to inspire and empower the next generation. Analysis of trends and policy options, combined with interviews with 21 role models spanning fields from business to the arts, diplomacy to politics, music to e-commerce, provides ample grounds for optimism. Japan is becoming a nation with an increasing number of potential female leaders. If this rise can be accelerated by both public policy and private action, Japan could achieve much greater social justice and sustainable prosperity in the decades to come.

Download or read book Comfort Women written by Yoshiaki Yoshimi and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available for the first time in English, this is the definitive account of the practice of sexual slavery the Japanese military perpetrated during World War II by the researcher principally responsible for exposing the Japanese government's responsibility for these atrocities. The large scale imprisonment and rape of thousands of women, who were euphemistically called "comfort women" by the Japanese military, first seized public attention in 1991 when three Korean women filed suit in a Toyko District Court stating that they had been forced into sexual servitude and demanding compensation. Since then the comfort stations and their significance have been the subject of ongoing debate and intense activism in Japan, much if it inspired by Yoshimi's investigations. How large a role did the military, and by extension the government, play in setting up and administering these camps? What type of compensation, if any, are the victimized women due? These issues figure prominently in the current Japanese focus on public memory and arguments about the teaching and writing of history and are central to efforts to transform Japanese ways of remembering the war. Yoshimi Yoshiaki provides a wealth of documentation and testimony to prove the existence of some 2,000 centers where as many as 200,000 Korean, Filipina, Taiwanese, Indonesian, Burmese, Dutch, Australian, and some Japanese women were restrained for months and forced to engage in sexual activity with Japanese military personnel. Many of the women were teenagers, some as young as fourteen. To date, the Japanese government has neither admitted responsibility for creating the comfort station system nor given compensation directly to former comfort women. This English edition updates the Japanese edition originally published in 1995 and includes introductions by both the author and the translator placing the story in context for American readers.
Book Synopsis In Search of Self in India and Japan by : Alan Roland
Download or read book In Search of Self in India and Japan written by Alan Roland and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on work with Indian and Japanese patients, a prominent American psychoanalyst explores inner worlds that are markedly different from the Western psyche. A series of fascinating case studies illustrates Alan Roland's argument: the "familial self," rooted in the subtle emotional hierarchical relationships of the family and group, predominates in Indian and Japanese psyches and contrasts strongly with the Western "individualized self." In perceptive and sympathetic terms Roland describes the emotional problems that occur when Indians and Japanese encounter Western culture and the resulting successful integration of new patterns that he calls the "expanding self." Of particular interest are descriptions of the special problems of women in changing society and of the paradoxical relationship of the "spiritual self" of Indians and Japanese to the "familial self.? Also described is Roland's own response to the broadening of his emotional and intellectual horizons as he talked to patients and supervised therapists in India and Japan. "As we were coming in for a landing to Bombay," he writes, "the plane banked so sharply that when I supposedly looked down all I could see were the stars, while if I looked up, there were the lights of the city." This is the "world turned upside down" that he describes so eloquently in this book. What he has learned will fascinate those who wish to deepen their understanding of a different way of being.
