Sociology in Japan

Sociology in Japan

The Overlooked Trajectory of Its Development

Inhalt

“This book is a long-awaited book. Through this book, people around the world will be able to learn for the first time an outline of the 150-year history of Japan's sociology. The epistemic relationship between two Sociologists from Russia and Japan may provide a new perspective and description for understanding the history of Sociology in Japan. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the Social sciences and history of Japan.”
Shujiro Yazawa, Professor Emeritus, Seijo University and Hitotsubashi University, Japan

“Sociology in Japan is an important book. Less because of its topic than because of its chronology. Choosing to focus most of the book on the early periods and trends of Japanese sociology - from the 1870s to 1945 - is a very bold and fruitful decision, for it eventually gives Japan the place it deserves in the world history of sociology as one of the very first countries in which "sociology" existed as a current of ideas. Reading this book is re-reading the history of our discipline.”  
Stéphane Dufoix, Professor of Sociology, University of Paris-Nanterre, France 

This Palgrave Pivot serves as a brief exploration of the evolution of sociological thinking in Japan from the Meiji era to the early 21st century. The authors unfold the narrative of societal changes, cultural shifts, and the interplay between tradition and modernity, tracing the footsteps of influential thinkers, movements, and key sociological themes that have shaped the collective consciousness of Japan. This book invites scholars and students alike to engage with the intricate fabric of Japanese society through a sociological lens.
