Lecture Economique de l'Histoire du Japon


Book Description

Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants suivant un programme d’études en langue ou commerce japonais, ou encore au lecteur averti intéressé par l’Histoire et l’Economie du Japon. Le Japon de 2014 se trouve à la croisée de nombreux défis de taille, qui sont abordés succinctement en fin de livre. Trois ans après le « tsunami » meurtrier de la région de « Tohoku », où en est le processus de reconstruction ? Le nucléaire va-t-il être remplacé par les Energies Renouvelables ? Comment le pays va-t-il faire face aux défis démographiques ? Le Japon est-il toujours un pays Innovateur ? En préparant un cours, l’auteur s’est aperçu qu’il y avait, surtout en langue anglaise, assez bien de livres sur l’Histoire et l'Economie du Japon en général, surtout après 1945, mais très... Plus > peu de livres récents se concentrant sur une lecture (purement) économique de l’Histoire entière du Japon. Malheureusement, il y a encore moins de choix en langue française. D’où, sans doute, la pertinence de cet ouvrage!

Second, I show how to adapt to the local specificities, Industry by Industry, and I give some tips and guidelines for building a successful (B2C and B2B) Marketing Mix in Japan.

Bridges to Japanese Business Etiquette - Understanding Japan Cross-cultural Management (couverture souple)


Book Description

(written in collaboration with Motoko MJ Huysveld) Cross-cultural misunderstandings frequently appear in situations where Westerners interact with people from the Far East, in particular with the Japanese. As a Japan Business Consultant, I have witnessed many business cases, situations or events, where understanding the basics of Japanese business etiquette and Japan cross-cultural management would have helped a lot. This book, filled with concrete advice and illustrations of what to do and what not to do, aims at giving foreign business executives the necessary background and "toolkit" for succeeding in their "Japan cross-cultural adventure". The reader equipped with all the tools and tips I have developed in this book should definitely "perform better" when confronted with a Japanese prospect, potential business partner or "boss". Being well prepared for future Japan-related business opportunities is of the most importance now that an EPA in principle has been concluded between the EU and Japan!
