Abstract
Japan has attained a very high degree of economic development with rapid technological and institutional change. Though Japan is the most industrialised of Asian countries, it does not necessarily follow that the Japanese possess the same social and psychological make-up as Westerners. Several authors (Christopher, 1984; Morishiam, 1982; Smith, 1983; Vogel, 1984) have provided many insights into the social, political and economic mechanisms that underlie the Japanese economic success since 1946.
