Hi Blog. “Embedded Racism: Japan’s Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination<\/a>” has been receiving acclaim. \u00a0 Prominent Japan\u00a0Scholar Tessa Morris-Suzuki calls it “important, courageous and challenging<\/a>“, the Pacific Affairs journal finds it “a timely and important contribution to social and scholarly debates about racial discrimination in Japan<\/a>“, the Japan Studies Association of Canada says it is “an important contribution to geography, cultural and area studies<\/a>“, and the Sociology and Ethnic Studies imprint of the American Sociological Association calls it “a brave critique of Japanese society and its failure to look outward in its demographic and economic development, … as it makes an important contribution for those wishing to understand racism in Japan better… The book would easily suit courses that address global conceptions of race and ethnicity and how these are changing in Japan at both the micro and macro levels because of globalization<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Dr. Robert Aspinall in a review in Social Science Journal Japan concludes:<\/p>\n

“There are important academic contributions to the study of racism in Japan in this book, but it is as a must-read text on the crisis facing the shrinking Japanese population and its leaders that it really leaves its mark. Embedded Racism<\/a> is highly recommended reading to anyone\u2014whether they self-identify as Japanese or foreign or both\u2014who is interested in Japan\u2019s future.” <\/em><\/strong>(read more<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
