Offers a survey of the childhood education system in Japan. This book opens up a range of questions about the future of traditional childcare in the climate of globalization. It examines the individuals and resources that allow such institutions to function: administrators, teachers, and the role of the state in standardizing preschool education.

This book studies the place of "body practices" and the management of emotions in Japanese pre-schools, focusing on a number of key issues related to embodiment and to affects. It examines this set of themes through the early childhood education institution Katsura "Hoikuen" (day-care centre).

Examines the Japanese cultural impact on Southeast Asia. The text considers the consequences of such impact in Singapore, a Southeast Asian society in which the Japanese presence is so visible as to make it a regional paradigm for a study of cultural influence in the region.
