A Sociology of Japanese Youth
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-66927-6 (ISBN)
The chapters include case studies covering issues such as:
Returnee children (kikokushijo)
Compensated dating (enjo kōsai)
Corporal punishment (taibatsu)
Bullying (ijime)
Child abuse (jidō gyakutai)
The withdrawn youth (hikikomori) and
NEETs (not in education, employment or training)
By examining these various social problems collectively, A Sociology of Japanese Youth explains why particular youth problems appeared when they did and what lessons they can provide for the study of youth problems in other societies.
This book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Japanese society and culture, the sociology of Japan, Japanese anthropology and the comparative sociology of youth studies.
