Organizational Survival

Robert J. Ballon

Chapter 3 in Japanese Management, 2005, pp 55-77 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract When the Japanese started full-fledged industrialization in the mid nineteenth century, Japan’s survival was at stake. Safeguarding nationhood meant catching up with the Western powers and being the first non-Western nation to industrialize. It was not so much an action to decide than a reaction to urgent necessity. Thus Western methods were subsumed in the Japanese web of values and practices ‘wakon yôsai’. 1
