- Masahiko Aoki is internationally renowned for his work in comparative institutional analysis and corporate governance
- Brings together a group of leading scholars from economics, law, sociology and management studies
- Corporate governance continues to be a hot topic and many lessons can be learned from the Japanese experience
Debates regarding corporate governance have become increasingly important in Japan as the post-war model of bank-based, stakeholder-oriented corporate governance faces the new pressures associated with globalization and growing investor demands for shareholder value. Bringing together a group of leading scholars from economics, law, sociology and management studies, this book looks at how the Japanese approach to corporate governance and the firm have changed in the post-bubble era. The contributions offer a unique empirical exploration of why and how Japanese firms are reshaping their corporate governance
arrangements, leading to greater diversity among firms and new 'hybrid' forms of corporate governance. The book concludes by looking at what effect these incremental but transformative changes may have on Japan's distinctive variety of capitalism. Readership: Academics interested in an up-to-date anaylsis of the Japanese firm and students of international business or specialist courses on Japan.
