Japanese youth and foreign migrants face stringent institutionalised controls in Japan. This book questions the efficacy of such social controls, focusing on the interrelation of inequality (powerlessness, discriminate controls and class inequality) and deviance (largely derived from power and the violation of informal and formal norms). It provides a comprehensive detailed description and explanation of inequality and deviance of Japanese youth and 17 foreign migrant groups. The book is aimed at individuals, students and academicians interested in Japan area studies.
Robert Stuart Yoder is a long-term resident of Japan and has taught at a number of universities including University of California Irvine and Sophia University in Tokyo. He has undertaken extensive research on deviance and inequality in Japan. Today, Robert is Adjunct Professor of Psychology and Sociology at Japan Branch, Lakeland College in Tokyo and instructor at several Japanese universities.
