Japanese Economy, 1981, vol. 10, issue 1, 53-81

Abstract: In recent years the interest from various foreign countries in the operations and labor-management relations of Japanese business firms seems to have been growing. The improvement of productivity, quality of goods, and international competitive strength of Japanese enterprise, which showed no decline even after the Oil Crisis, has attracted much notice abroad, and Japanese business management — above all the management of human resources — as the key factor supporting those improvements has come to be the focus of considerable attention. The recent rise in interest on the part of American industry in Japanese small-group activity is one example of this.(1)
