The Changing Japanese Family

0 - Default Title
Description
The Japanese family is shifting in fundamental ways, demographically, and in terms of attitudes towards family and societal relationships, and the role of family in society. These changes include an aging population, delayed marriages, a birth rate which has fallen below the level needed for replacement, a decline in three-generational households, a rise in single men and women who continue to live with their parents, and a decline in family businesses. This book explores these significant changes and their effects, setting them in the context of wider economic and social changes in Japan, and making international comparisons, especially with southern Europe, where similar changes to the family and its role are occurring.
