Download or read book American Power the New World Order and the Japanese Challenge written by William R. Nester and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Cold War is over - Japan won!" How true is this popular perception? Will the next century be Japan's rather than America's? Japan has clearly replaced the USA as the world's most dynamic economic power by most financial, manufacturing and technological measures. Japan's success rate rests on the rejection of liberal economics and the adoption instead of neomercantilist policies which nurture both growing and declining industries through a dynamic mixture of corporate collusion and competition. How important is all this? What does it matter if the USA continues to run deficits while Japan amasses huge surpluses, and surpasses the USA in manufacturing, financial and technological power? Should the USA adopt Japan-style neomercantilism or retain its free-market policies? How does continuing American liberalism and Japanese neomercantilism, and the related tremendous shift in the balance of economic power from the USA to Japan, affect American security? Can America's decline be reversed? The book explores these and related questions concerning US-Japan relations in a rapidly changing, interdependent world.
Download or read book Japan s Software Factories written by Michael A. Cusumano and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1991-05-16 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Japan has successfully competed with U.S. companies in the manufacturing and marketing of computer hardware, it has been less successful in developing computer programs. This book contains the first detailed analysis of how Japanese firms have tried to redress this imbalance by applying their skills in engineering and production management to software development. Cusumano focuses on the creation of "software factories" in which large numbers of people are engaged in developing software in cooperative ways--i.e. individual programs are not developed in isolation but rather utilize portions of other programs already developed whenever possible, and then yield usable portions for other programs being written. Devoting chapters to working methods at System Developing Corp., Hitachi, Toshiba, NEC, and Fujitsu, and including a comparison of Japanese and U.S. software factories, Cusumano's book will be important reading for all people involved in software and computer technology, as well as those interested in Japanese business and corporate culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies reflected on the deteriorating position of the domestic auto industry in the fall of 1980, and the strong competitive threat being posed by the Japanese automakers, we were struck by the extraordinary low quality of the public discussion of these critical issues. The national importance of the issues seemed only matched by the superficiality of the analyses being offered. The tendency to think in terms of scapegoats was particularly evident. The Japanese as the basic cause of our problems has been a particularly notable theme. To be sure, cooperation with the Japanese in formulating a rational overall trade policy may be an important part of the solution. It has also been fashionable to blame it all on American auto industry management for not concentrating on the production of small cars when "everyone knew" that was the thing to do. Alternatively, government meddling was blamed for all our problems. Clearly, the complex problem we faced required more penetrating analyses. It seemed therefore, that the time was ripe for a public seminar which moved beyond the rhetoric of the moment and probed some of the deeper causes of our problems and possible directions for future policy. In holding the January 1981 auto conference, the Center took it as their task to begin addressing the critical issues facing the industry, with particular, but not exclusive, attention to examining the role of the Japanese auto industry. They had in mind not to simply conduct a rational discussion of the trade issue but to probe the sources of Japanese competitive strength, especially those features whose study might profit them. In these proceedings, they bring those discussions to a wider audience. Question and answer sessions at the conference were necessarily short and a few speakers delivered abbreviated remarks; this volume restores a number of omissions, and provides additional answers to some pertinent questions put by the audience. The Center hopes to encourage the serious problem-solving these complex issues demand. Far too much time has been spent trying to fix the blame. [intro]

Download or read book Japan Challenges America written by Harrison M Holland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-27 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the US-Japan alliance in jeopardy, former diplomat Harrison Holland argues that both sides must take bold steps to avert a catastrophe that could destabilize economic, political and security conditions in Asia. Taking advantage of his insider's perceptions, the author illuminates those aspects of life in Japan that influence behaviour, shape policy and affect public opinion in an inwardly directed society. Holland evaluates the obstacles to better economic relations; the security dilemmas facing Japan; and the rigid Japanese political structure, which has been slow to adapt to the surge of modern technology, the demands of rapid international change, and the internal and external calls for a more responsible Japanese role in world affairs. Can the alliance survive the present turmoil? Despite the daunting obstacles, the author concludes that solutions must and will be found.
