Social Mobility in Contemporary Japan : Educational Credentials, Class and the Labour Market in a Cross-National Perspective PDF
by Hiroshi Ishida
Part of the St Antony's Series series
Description
The book is a study of intergenerational class mobility and the process of socioeconomic status attainment in contemporary Japan.
The idea of 'Japan as an educational credential society' has been debated for a long time in Japan.
The book empirically evaluates this idea within the framework of a cross-national comparison with the United States and Britain.
The author also examines the patterns of class mobility in Japan within a cross-national perspective and reports similarities and differences in the mobility patterns among the three societies.
