Book excerpt: With Strategic Networks: The Art of Japanese Interfirm Cooperation, you will examine the structure and dynamics of Japanese business networks and discover successful Japanese business practices and opportunities. For professors of business and Japanese studies, as well as managers of firms throughout the world, this book analyzes new and innovative networks through case examples from the Japanese automobile, chemical, and electronics industries. Strategic Networks offers you insight into the management of these company partnerships and how they work to increase the competitiveness of businesses and allow firms within the network to share important knowledge. Unknown to many, several of the management concepts that made Japanese companies successful in the 1980s, such as total quality control (TQC) and continuing improvement processes (CIP), were only a part of the formula for a successful business. This book discusses types of Japanese strategic networks, another element of Japan’s thriving business structure of today, how they are influenced by Japanese cultural values and state interventions, and why all of the businesses involved are benefiting from these networks. Evaluating the theoretical foundation of these business relationships and intercompany cooperation, Strategic Networks offers you up-to-date information on the structures of Japanese firms by: examining Karl Popper’s ideas on critical rationalism and how Japanese companies follow his theories of problem solving, questioning, and developing knowledge explaining the system, growth, and game theories in order to completely understand a network and all of its facets exploring the ability to work with and navigate strategic networks when they are managed without strict plans or with unforeseen circumstances recognizing how networks enable the activation of interpreneurs to develop future visions, innovations, and responsible leadership for the network Complete with illustrations to emphasize important points along with insight into networks in the twenty-first century, Strategic Networks offers information and research that will help you understand how Japanese networks operate and how Japanese firms are conducting business differently. As a result, you will learn how the changing values in Japanese society influence company structures and procedures and come to understand the unique workings and effective structures of strategic networks.
Download or read book 21st Century Innovation Systems for Japan and the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-05-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing that a capacity to innovate and commercialize new high-technology products is increasingly a key for the economic growth in the environment of tighter environmental and resource constraints, governments around the world have taken active steps to strengthen their national innovation systems. These steps underscore the belief of these governments that the rising costs and risks associated with new potentially high-payoff technologies, their spillover or externality-generating effects and the growing global competition, require national R&D programs to support the innovations by new and existing high-technology firms within their borders. The National Research Council's Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy (STEP) has embarked on a study of selected foreign innovation programs in comparison with major U.S. programs. The "21st Century Innovation Systems for the United States and Japan: Lessons from a Decade of Change" symposium reviewed government programs and initiatives to support the development of small- and medium-sized enterprises, government-university- industry collaboration and consortia, and the impact of the intellectual property regime on innovation. This book brings together the papers presented at the conference and provides a historical context of the issues discussed at the symposium.
Download or read book Greater China and Japan written by Robert Taylor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary relations between Greater China and Japan have been conditioned both by differing responses to the impact of Western colonialism during the mid-nineteenth century and the legacy of the Cold War. There are mutual suspicions: the Chinese fear of a Japanese military revival and the Japanese concern over increasing Chinese economic competition and territorial ambitions. Robert Taylor recognises the mistrust in Sino-Japanese relations, but also sees shared advantages in this traditionally adversarial relationship. The Chinese are currently modelling their economic strategy on Japan's developmental experience, even though China's policies and institutions have distinctive features and differing agendas. The study also examines the growing momentum towards sub-regional integration; rivalry between Greater China and Japan is giving way to competition between regional economic blocks and corporate entities. Greater China and Japan explores the ambiguous relationship between the two countries and states that its development is crucial to the future of the region in the twenty-first century.
Download or read book Japanese Companies in East Asia History and Prospects written by Hirohiko Shimpo and published by . This book was released on 2012-11-03 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of my first book in English, Historical Development of Japanese Companies: Corporate Governance and Foreign Investment Expanded and Revised and Second Edition (2009), was to examine the development of Japanese corporate governance and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Perspectives about Japanese corporate governance and FDI, which are based on misunderstanding and intentional distortion, are unexpectedly deep-rooted both at home and abroad. Using detailed data from financial information, this book illuminates the reality and the positive contributions of Japanese companies.Based on the above, this new second book discusses the position and role of Japanese companies in East Asia, investigating competition and alliances with Asian companies in the prewar and postwar periods. Part 1 examines examples of economic competition between Japanese and Chinese companies, and sheds light on the advantages of the Japanese company in the inter-war period. This part also further expands the possibility of collaboration between Japanese and Chinese companies. Part 2 considers the relationships between current Japan and Asia, especially China and Taiwan. The success of Asian export-oriented industrialization developed the Asian economy and forced Japanese companies to change. Japanese companies are moving to more technology-intensive industries and expanding their alliances with Asian companies in leading industries. Finally this new book emphasizes the importance of participation in the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) as the most realistic and effective economic integration in Asia. Through the TPP, Japan will make more foreign investment possible, revive its economy and transfer advanced industrial technology and market-centered corporate governance to Asia.

As well as highlighting the essential differences that separate Japanese transnational companies from those of the UK and the USA, the study gives new theoretical insights into the complex behaviour of Japanese corporations in their host countries.
Download or read book Focus China written by René Haak and published by IUDICIUM Verlag. This book was released on 2003 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the dynamic growth of its economy over the last 20 years, China still has a long way to go to catch up with Japan. In commercial and technological terms, Japan is still the dominant economy in East Asia and is still the leading source of product, production and management innovations in the region, especially in the automotive and electronic industries. However, China is closing the gap year by year. The development of bilateral foreign trade, the increase of Japanese FDI and ODA towards China, and intensified financial and technical co-operation illustrate the considerable potential for mutually profitable business. The Chinese market is opening up and Chinese products are increasingly gaining competitiveness in world markets, threatening the incumbent Japanese firms. Japanese and Chinese companies face each other across a changing competitive environment, which is posing new challenges to corporate and business strategies. Within the context of these developments this book looks from different perspectives at how Japanese companies are reacting to the challenges and opportunities offered by China.

Download or read book Japanese Companies in East Asia written by Hirohiko Shinpo and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventy years have passed since the end of World War II. Although feelings and incidents between the victorious and the defeated nations have not disappeared, new relationships have reshaped the post World War II social, economic and political landscape, such as the establishment of the European Union and the Japan-U.S. alliance. Scholars and historians are attempting to objectively reexamine World War II. The passage of time has terminated the copyrights for the relevant document. The expectation now is more objective research on the economy and business in the inter-war period.The first edition of Japanese Companies in East Asia: History and Prospects discussed the position and role of Japanese companies in East Asia, investigating competition and alliances with Asian companies in the prewar and postwar periods. Part 1 examines Japanese investment in China in the inter-war period, and the economic competition and collaboration between Japanese and Chinese companies. Part 2 considers the current relationships between Japan and Asia, especially China and Taiwan. The success of Asian export-oriented industrialization forced Japanese companies to expand their alliances with Asian companies in leading industries.The first edition of this book was published in 2012. Since then, I have published three papers on Japanese investment and companies in the inter-war period, which are the new Part 2 of the enlarged and revised second edition. The new Part 2 illuminates the development of market-centered corporate governance and foreign direct investment based on it, and presents specific examples of collaboration between Japanese companies and host countries and regions. My recent paper, which is Chapter 9 in the new Part 3, focused on the ASEAN 100 companies and discussed the rapid economic growth and globalization of ASEAN and the remarkable expansion of relations between Japan and ASEAN. Part 3 shows that the globalization of the Japanese economy and Japanese companies are progressing on the common basis of a market economy and market-centered corporate governance in East Asia.I would appreciate readers following my research through visiting my previous and new website: http://www.hshimpo.com/en/index.php and https://sites.google.com/site/hshimpoen/.
Download or read book The Rise Of The Japanese Corporate System written by Koji Matsumoto and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1991. In general, Japan's economic system is viewed as being capitalism, and there seems to be no room for doubting otherwise. If one glances at the many subsystems that form the Japanese economy's foundation, for example, such as private ownership of property, joint stock companies and well-developed markets, one is forced to conclude that yes, indeed, Japan belongs to the group of highly developed capitalist nations. Although not widely recognized yet, a new economic system has developed and been nurtured in Japan inside a shell of capitalism. The new system differs greatly from traditional capitalism, but that does not mean to say it has drawn close to socialism. Nor can the newness of this system be understood by viewing it as depending principally on either market or planning principles, or on the two in combination. This book discusses the new corporate system in specific terms, explaining how it differs from the system of orthodox capitalist corporations, in being both more progressive and more fitting for meeting the various conditions of contemporary industrial society. It also explains the circumstances, in the context of the new corporate system, that brought forth powerful corporations for which it is difficult to find comparisons in other countries.
