Description
Studying Japan ist das erste umfassende Methodenhandbuch für die qualitative sozialwissenschaftliche Japanforschung. Mehr als 70 WissenschaftlerInnen aus der ganzen Welt führen systematisch in den gesamten Forschungsprozess von der Themenfindung bis zur Veröffentlichung ein. Das Handbuch bietet einen leicht verständlichen Überblick über die Methodenvielfalt, die in der Forschung zu Japans Gesellschaft, Politik, Wirtschaft, Geschichte und Kultur zum Einsatz kommt. Die AutorInnen stellen Grundlagen vor, diskutieren aktuelle Trends und geben anhand eigener Erfahrungen konkrete Tipps zur Umsetzung. Das Handbuch eignet sich als Grundlage für Methodenkurse; die einzelnen Kapitel können jedoch auch zum Nachschlagen oder zum Selbststudium verwendet werden. Ein Muss für Studierende, Promovierende, Lehrende und Forschende aus den Area Studies und den Sozialwissenschaften mit Interesse an der Japanforschung!

Reviews
»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.«
