Japan's Socio-economic Evolution - Continuity and Change (Hardcover)

From the commercial and industrial transformation of Osaka in the late 19th century to the role and status of Japanese multinationals in Europe: these two themes represent both the time-span and the breadth of this volume which draws on a cross-section of key papers given at the 1994 triennial conference of the European Association of Japanese Studies (Economics/Economic Social History section) at Copenhagen.
