Review # 1 was written on 2018-09-05 00:00:00 Pamela Davis A fascinating dive in to Japanese social structures. Covers a range of topics from general criminological theories to corporate social institutions. I found the method compelling how the author intertwines the above topics and uses them to explain Japans tight nit social structure that sacrifices personal freedom and expression for social engagement and security. The same Methods that enable this close obedient community also fertilises the ground that causes an increase in white collar crime and a decrease in general trust amongst others. The other explores these themes in an easy to read format that has a nice flow. Each chapter is nearly summarised at the end and a banging conclusion that weaves everything yo nicely. Fascinating read

Review # 2 was written on 2020-06-20 00:00:00 Max Leidermann A must read for everyone interested in exploring Japanese society, with a caveat that the book was published in 2000 and is based on even older data. I would be very interested in reading an extrapolation of this book or its continuation with recent data and trends.
