“Japan Re-Emerges”: A Discussion of Ulrike Schaede’s New Book
Ulrike Schaede’s new book presents an alternative narrative of Japanese business today — not of a system in doom and gloom, but of a re-emerging technology leader in global value chains. To survive rising competition in Northeast Asia, Japan’s frontrunner companies have moved upstream, away from commoditized or end products and into high value-added inputs and frontier materials. The resulting “Japan Inside” position is less visible yet more powerful. The pace of this transformation is slow, but slow is not stagnant. In choosing stability over fast reorganization, Japan may present a new set of tradeoffs that result in a better balance between economic growth and societal well-being.
