Attempts to understand the nation were made by classifying Japan and its people within the racial and political hierarchies known at the time, which were frequently contradictory in attitude. By focusing on the popular British satirical magazine, Punch, this paper explores the ways in which Japan was used as a satirical “other” between 1852 and 1893. The fluctuating representations reveal socio-political anxieties during a period of heightened consciousness towards ideological and geopolitical power dynamics.","PeriodicalId":37204,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Japan","volume":"33 1","pages":"201 - 224"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/18692729.2021.1926410","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43772689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent shifts in gender roles, female workforce participation, and more varied living patterns and couple relationships are increasingly placing pressure on younger and middle-aged couples with children. Our findings suggest that despite historical and cultural differences in the nexus of work and family, not to mention diverging levels of government support for dual-worker families, there are interesting commonalities in the ways in which couples reconcile work and family. In particular, in both Japan and France, naturalizing women as the main care givers is a fundamental aspect of how work and family balance is maintained. Despite the presence of many supportive institutional frameworks for flexible work, childcare support, and gender equity, both the French and the Japanese pursue subjective well-being through gendered notions of care.","PeriodicalId":37204,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Japan","volume":"35 1","pages":"214 - 247"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/18692729.2021.1925399","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44114360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Media representation of an imagined imperial community: Digital media reports in Japan at the dawn of the Reiwa era and Emperor Naruhito’s ascension to the throne","authors":"Shinobu Anzai","doi":"10.1080/18692729.2021.1921330","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/18692729.2021.1921330","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT Drawing on media portrayals of the Japanese imperial family since the end of World War II, this study explores an imagined imperial community represented through Japanese digital media reports culminating at the dawn of Reiwa and Emperor Naruhito’s coronation in 2019. The study examines if the media representation of the Reiwa imagined imperial community reflects the preferred narrative of the Abe administration (2012–2020). The study’s main conceptual suppositions are Benedict Anderson’s imagined communities and Kurihara Akira’s performance model of the emperor system. Findings from a content analysis of digital media reports between 1 April 2019 and 4 May 2019 suggest that a) the Reiwa imagined imperial community was chiefly represented by media reports with nationalistic narratives in line with the Abe administration’s political philosophy, hinting at restoring a prewar imagined imperial community; and b) digital media organizations practiced sontaku – a media practice of willing submission to the government – by favoring the Abe administration’s narrative of the Reiwa imagined imperial community. Hence, the current study identified that the Reiwa imagined imperial community, which appeared in the digital media, was not just a high-profile historical event. Rather, the Reiwa imagined imperial community was a grand political performance scripted by the Abe administration with the media as the intermediary.","PeriodicalId":37204,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Japan","volume":"33 1","pages":"169 - 200"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/18692729.2021.1921330","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42625708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
