This book, based on economics and game theory, analyzes the
changes that Japan is now facing as a reflection of changes in
Japanese families and society. The author presents a simple
framework for the structural relationship among markets,
communities including families, and the state; and uses it to
explain the changes that have occurred in Japanese society.
Social changes have created a series of social problems such as
population ageing, poverty, and regional disparities, which
require changes in public policies. The book provides readers
with rich information about the Japanese social security system,
social policies and regional policies by explaining why they are
developed, how they are designed, and what challenges they face.
Readers will find that the transformation of Japanese society is
not really a special case but a fairly common one that many
developed countries have experienced and many developing
countries are going to experience. The book will be useful not
only to those who are interested in Japanese society and public
policies but also to anyone who is interested in the
transformations of families, communities, and roles of the state
in a modern market economy.
