First published in 1997. This book is addressed to two kinds of readers: to social theorists,

on the grounds that the Japanese experience is or should be of

particular relevance to their problems, and to scholars working

on Japanese history, culture and society, in the hope that the

theoretical interpretations outlined below may be of some interest

to them.
