Abstract: Ever since Japan entered its era of modernization her goals have been to become a strong world power. During her early stages of development her orientations wete translated to mean military as well as economic power. After World War II. however, the Japanese have shunted away from militarism and have instead declared constitutionally that "it is one of the purposes of the state to guarantee to every citizen a minimum level of cultured and wholesome living" (quoted by Dore. 1971 : 4). A further interpretation of this constitutional objective is for Japan to become a major economic power. To achieve such a national objective the government has been consistently inclined to favor industry. It has been this favorable predisposition toward industry that its growth was*) conceivable. The intensification of industry meant also an expansion of its absorptive capacity of the labor force and thus expansion of the bureaucratic machinery.
