Highlighting some of the latest academic research in business, socio-economic, and cultural history, it offers novel perspectives on the development of modern Japan, particularly since the 20th century. Accessible to a broad audience, this work provides insights into the evolution of Japanese capitalism over time as well as some of the individuals who played a role in its development. This is the first publication of its kind specifically using the history of capitalism as the focal point for discussing the formation of modern Japanese business.

Instead, the formation and transformation of capitalism are interpreted as the outcome of the actions of individuals, namely entrepreneurs and social groups within a changing political and cultural context. In addition, the transnational and global dimensions of the history of Japanese capitalism investigated in this book offer a fresh and original look at contemporary Japan"--
