Описание:
This first ethnographic study of factory workers engaged in radical labor protest gives a voice to a previously marginalized segment of the Japanese population. These workers tell their own stories of lengthy struggles to make sense of their lives and culture during times of conflict and instability. What emerges is a sensitive portrait of how workers grapple with a slowed economy and the crises facing Japanese industry in the late twentieth century. The ways that they think and feel about accommodation, resistance, and protest raise essential questions about the transformation of labor practices and limits of worker cooperation and compliance.Похожие книги
