Like other industrial nations, Japan is experiencing its own forms of,
and problems with, internationalization and multiculturalism. This
volume focuses on several aspects of this process and examines the
immigrant minorities as well as their Japanese recipient communities.
Multiculturalism is considered broadly, and includes topics often
neglected in other works, such as: religious pluralism, domestic and
international tourism, political regionalism and decentralization,
sports, business styles in the post-Bubble era, and the education of
immigrant minorities.
