description: The Sogo Shosha is a typical commercial institution peculiar to Japan and intimately related to that country's dramatic transformation from a backward, agricultural feudal state into a modern industrial power of the first rank. This book uses the development of Sogo Shosha, to trace its story and to explain how the process of industrialization took place in Japan and why it took the form it did.
