Women, Work and the Japanese Economic Miracle: The Case of the Cotton Textile Industry, 1945-1975 (RoutledgeCurzon Studies in the Modern History of Asia)
Автор:Helen Macnaughtan Год: 2005 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 240 ISBN: 0415328055 This book shows how, during the period of the Japanese economic miracle, a distinctive female employment system was developed alongside, and different from, the better known Japanese employment system which was applied to male employees. Women, Work and the Japanese Economic Miracle describes and analyses the place of female workers in the cotton textile industry, which was a crucially important industry with a large workforce. In presenting detailed data on such key issues as recruitment systems, management practices and the working experience of the women involved, it demonstrates the importance for Japan's postwar economy of harnessing female labor during these years.
