Chapter 23. Continuity and Change in Japanese Values and Society

Makoto Ohtsu, Shigeya Adachi and Atsuko Nagano

Japanese Economy, 1999, vol. 27, issue 6, 38-56

Abstract: In Chapter 1 we introduced the view of James Abegglen (1958, 1973) in the context of the convergence-divergence debate [The Japanese Economy 27, no. 2: 30-31]. Simply put, his view, which represents the divergence school of thought, is that Japanese management practices are unique, because Japanese culture is unique. In this chapter and the next we will introduce the views of our participants in this study on these two questions: the uniqueness of Japanese culture and the uniqueness of Japanese management.
