Japan was the only non-Western nation to industrialize before 1900 and its leap into the modern era has stimulated vigorous debates among historians and social scientists. In an innovative discussion that posits the importance of physical well-being as a key indicator of living standards, Susan B. Hanley considers daily life in the three centuries leading up to the modern era in Japan. She concludes that people lived much better than has been previously understood - at levels equal or superior to their Western contemporaries. She goes on to illustrate how this high level of physical well-being had important consequences for Japan's ability to industrialize rapidly and for the comparatively smooth transition to a modern, industrial society. While others have used income levels to conclude that the Japanese household was relatively poor in those centuries, Hanley examines the material culture - food, sanitation, housing, and transportation. How did ordinary people conserve the limited resources available in this small island country? What foods made up the daily diet and how were they prepared? How were human wastes disposed of? How long did people live? Hanley answers all these questions and more in an accessible style and with frequent comparisons with Western lifestyles. Her methods allow for cross-cultural comparisons between Japan and the West as well as Japan and the rest of Asia. They will be useful to anyone interested in the effects of modernization on daily life.
日本是近代唯一一个逃脱被殖民的命运、相反还跻身列强的非西方国家。在世人眼中,日本当时从一个落后国家向现代国家的“变身”,是在明治维新时期短短的十多年间突然完成的。这种广为流行的叙述过分强调了断裂与变革,但却对日本社会的延续性过于忽视——事实上,今天的日本文...

評分1、以人均收入来衡量生活标准所面临的一个更重大的问题是,人均收入无法告诉我们收入的分配情况。对新古典派经济学家来说,收入的分配是由所有的经济参与者在他们合作生产全部产品和服务时所作的贡献决定的,因此,这些经济学家无法说明改变收入的分配如何能造福整个社会。此类...
評分- 書是寫給英語世界的. 自已覺得亞洲的讀者大概對作者的諸多'發現'不會太驚訝. - 儘管如此, 讀到作者從衣食住的角度描述明治維新前日本的狀況, 還是十分的開眼界. 作者提出'非西方中心'的角度去評價日本的生活水準, 不失為我們今天藉得思考何謂好的生活. - 日本當時會收集城...
評分其實不是書評,讀完後幾個想法,寫在日記中,在這裡也留一筆期待回應。 今天讀《近世日本的日常生活》,又見友鄰書評,有些疑惑想不清楚,暫且記下了。 一是中日兩國近代都有閉關鎖國的歷史,但是被迫開國后對待新事物的態度與接納速度截然不同,這是為何。 二是日本在閉關...
