More about the book
Focusing on the challenges posed by an ageing population in Japan, the book delves into the complexities of elder care amidst a shrinking workforce and tax base. Through extensive fieldwork at a Japanese elderly care institution, it examines evolving perceptions of family responsibility, the institutionalization of seniors, and welfare rights. Additionally, it contrasts Japanese elder care management with Western practices, providing insights into cultural differences and institutional operations in addressing the needs of the elderly.
