Diverging political pathways of labor market reform in Japan an / Song, Jiyeoun   Journal Article
Song, Jiyeoun Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract In this article, I analyze diverging political pathways of labor market reform with an empirical focus on the cases of Japan and Korea. Despite similar trends of regulatory reform toward the increase of labor market flexibility, the patterns of labor market reform differed in the two countries. Japan adopted labor market liberalization for nonregular workers with the persistence of employment protection for regular workers. In contrast, Korea opted for regulatory reform for all workers while simultaneously strengthening workers' basic rights and improving protections for nonregular workers. I argue that the institutional features of the employment protection system determine the diverging patterns of labor market reform in Japan and Korea.

Japan's labor market reform after the collapse of the bubble ec: political determinants of regulatory changes / Song, Jiyeoun   Journal Article
Song, Jiyeoun Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract This article analyzes Japan's labor market reform in response to its protracted recession, focusing on the institutional configuration of policymaking. It argues that although the centralization of decision-making authority bypassed bureaucracy-led policymaking, policy coordination with coalition partners and political compromise with opposition parties prevented across-the-board labor market deregulation in Japan.

Politics of immigrant incorporation policies in Korea and Japan / Song, Jiyeoun   Article
Song, Jiyeoun Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Over the past two decades Korea and Japan have experienced a rapid inflow of foreign population into their homogeneous societies. Despite their many similarities in immigration control policies, Korea and Japan have differed in their politics of immigrant incorporation. Korea's central government has instituted policies that favor female marriage migrants and children of international marriages, while Japan's local governments have initiated policies for a wide range of foreign residents in their communities. I argue that the different boundaries of citizenship for specific groups of the foreign population, created and reinforced by the state, explain variations in the politics of immigrant incorporation policies in the two countries
