Japanese society is now in the midst of a dramatic transformation. An extremely low birth rate and rapidly aging society is resulting in a declining Japanese labor force, fueling a need for nonJapanese laborers and others to maintain economic growth. However, despite a sense of impending crises, Japan continues to be ill equipped to accept nonJapanese workers and add to the diversity already existing within its borders. Currently, many of the benefits of inclusive societies, which lead to a more innovative and fulfilling society, are being curtailed by a pervading notion that Japan is monocultural and that diversity leads to too many problems. Readings on diversity issues From hate speech to identity and privilege in Japan examines the state of diversity in past and presentday Japan and how Japanese people and the government navigate Japans multicultural society, as well as the way cultural minorities negotiate their lives in a country which still has difficulty accepting diversity.
