Title: Relocating the Japanese worker
Description: This book is the first in its field to examine the geographical mobility of labour in the context of Japanese management practices, including the 'lifetime employment' system; it shows how a variety of transfer types are deployed through ordered bureaucratic careers, and to facilitate an effective response to the challenges of economic change.

Two case studies reveal intricate relationships between spatial mobility and the career paths of senior officials within a stable organization - the Ministry of Labour and the Nippon Steel Corporation.
