The Challenge of Japanese Small Business

Hideichiro Nakamura

Japanese Economy, 1986, vol. 15, issue 1, 76-101

Abstract: There has been a persistent belief in Japan that the existence of numerous small businesses in the Japanese economy is the exemplification of its historical backwardness. The view that sees small businesses as being backward, weak, unstable, excessively competitive, and exploited by large firms has always been popular and is still a dominant view of small businesses to many people.
