Zusammenfassung: | Prompted by increasing evidence of the world s shift to the right, not least among the industrialised nations, here is a cri de coeur from almost the last survivor from the postwar crop of European sociologists and scholars of Japanese Studies. After six decades following developments in Japanese society, economy and culture and as a well-known leftie he describes the evolution of his cognitive and evaluative/emotional perceptions of Japan, and explains why he can no longer be described as a Japanophile. To which are added essays on more general issues of the day, such as events in the Ukraine, Iran and Israel. The key words are indeed cantankerous (because he is greatly exercised by the conspiracies of silence embedded in the culture of modern political and public life; musings (because this is not so much a single-focus monograph, rather a collection of spontaneous, but deeply considered reflections on matters of the moment) and disillusioned (both by Japan s reversion to chauvinistic nationalism, and because, as a youth, he hoped for and expected an enhancement of the role of reason in international affairs.) The book, which comprises eight chapters, opens with The return of the near-native written in diary form, reflecting on current experiences and topics during a summer/autumn visit to Japan in 2014, and concludes with philosophical reflections entitled Human Progress?. Between these two are to be found the core essays: The Social Conditions for Economic Performance, and the Piketty Boom; OPMF, Central Bank Conservatism and Financial Economics; Collision Course; Japan and North Korea; A New Beginning?; The New Cold Wars; Friends, Allies and Enemies. This will be of special interest to all who know or have accessed the author s vast literary output relating to Japan; but it also has considerably wider relevance among those who are in any way connected with contemporary society, politics and economics and wish to confront the conspiracy of silence within our interdependent world |
