Description

Japanese white-collar workers have been characterised by their intense loyalty and life-long commitment to their companies.

This book is based on very extensive ethnographic research inside a Japanese insurance company during the period when the company was going through a major crisis which ended in the company's bankruptcy and collapse.

It examines the attitudes of Japanese employees towards their work, their company and related issues at a time when the established order and established attitudes were under threat.

The wide range and detail of the reporting of workers' attitudes, often in their own words, sustained over a considerable timescale, makes this study a particularly valuable resource.
