This book aims to review the postwar interactions of Japan with Asia.
The Japanese factory production system, kaizen, has been shared in
Asia. This book collects more diverse topics from Japan's interactions
with China, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Hong Kong. Each chapter
provides details on how the business, political, and cultural
interactions enrich both sides. The findings are then used to suggest
the possibility of a de-facto Asian Community and Japan's role in the
present and post-COVID-19 world.
