Beschreibung
Studying Japan is the first comprehensive guide on qualitative methods, research designs and fieldwork in social science research on Japan. More than 70 Japan scholars from around the world provide an easy-to-read overview on qualitative methods used in research on Japan’s society, politics, culture and history. The book covers the entire research process from the outset to the completion of a thesis, a paper, or a book. The authors provide basic introductions to individual methods, discuss their experiences when applying these methods and highlight current trends in research on Japan. The book serves as a foundation for a course on qualitative research methods and is, but can also be used as a reference for all researchers in Japanese Studies, the Social Sciences and Area Studies. It is an essential reading for students and researchers with an interest in Japan!

Rezensionen
»there is no doubt that Studying Japan is a first of its kind, and a
book I wish had been available when I was doing my own PhD. [...] Here we have not only vignettes of research experiences and incisive advice and discussion about preparation, the process of research and the writing, but also an extraordinary source book, with references to the latest and most useful literature. This is in effect an encyclopaedia of Japanese Studies research methodologies and as such is essential reading for specialists, students of Japan and others with an interest in navigating the field.«
Gwyn McClelland, New Voices in Japanese Studies 13/2021, 94

»"Studying Japan" will be an indispensable guide for students embarking on research in Japan, and a wonderful teaching tool for faculty. Given its scope, organization and readability, it could be used more broadly in social science methods courses.«
Joshua Hotaka Roth, Anthropos 2/2023, 641
