About This Item
US: University of Hawaii Press, 2003. Paperback. Very Good. Doing Fieldwork in Japan taps the expertise of North American and European specialists on the practicalities of conducting long-term research in the s ocial sciences and cultural studies. In lively first-person accounts, they discuss their successes and failures doing fieldwork across rural and urban Japan in a wide range of settings: among religious pilgrims and adolescent consumers; on factory assembly lines and in high schools and wholesale sea food markets; with bureaucrats in charge of defense, foreign aid, and socia l welfare policy; inside radical political movements; among adherents of "N ew Religions"; inside a prosecutor's office and the JET Program for foreign English teachers; with journalists in the NHK newsroom; while researching race, ethnicity, and migration; and amidst fans and consumers of contempora ry popular culture.
