First published in 1991. This book, based on fieldwork carried out in Japan between 1981 and 1983, is a study of two residential communities in the context of Japan's post-war urban and social developments. Yamanaka, a commuter village, and Hieidaira, a new suburban housing estate, are set against the picturesque Hieizan mountain chain to the east of Kyoto's northern suburbs.

Maps, tables, figures, appendices, notes, references, index, xviii + 328pp. Japanese Studies Series. An excellent copy in a dustjacket. This book provides a detailed ethnographic account of two modern suburban communities in Japan, an area that has had little attention in the literature. Most studies have either focussed on rural Japan or the older urban areas. Ben-Ari uses an analytical and comparative framework for examining the dynamics of these communities.
