| Research Abstract |
The Japanese economy has achieved a high real economic growth exceeding 10% p.a., and continued to maintain relatively high development among the industrial nations even after the oil crisis.
For this reason, Japanese capitalism as well as Japanese style of management are being discussed all over the world. Especially because English language publications tend to be favorable to the current status of the Japanese economy, it is likely to be getting overvaluation.
While, business and industries enjoy high effeciency due to development of micro-electronics information technology in the Japanese economy, workers' labor intensity heightened and as a result the "death from overwork" is fast becoming a critical social issue, and the government itself is forced to deal with "breaking away from the corporate-centered society" as a policy issue for 1990's.
Accordingly it is the urgent task as well as the international responsibility for Japanese researchers to present systematically and critically the entire image of the Japanese capitalism which was pushed accidentally to the vanguard of history under the multi- tiered and multi-lateral world crisis.
In order to clarify the prominent features of the Japanese capitalism it is necessary to make an approach from the perspectives of (1) technological innovation (2) corporate system ( inter-corporate relations and coporate finance structure ) (3) the Japanese corporations as well as to establish a uniform viewpoint common to them.
