Description

In twenty-first century Japan there are numerous instances of media harassment, intimidation, censorship and self-censorship that undermine the freedom of the press. Since Abe returned to power in 2012, the recrudescence of nationalism has emboldened right-wing activists and organizations targeting liberal media outlets, journalists, peace museums, and ethnic Korean residents. This text is divided into five sections that cover: Politics of Press Freedom, The Legal Landscape, History and Culture, Marginalization, PR, Public Diplomacy and Manipulating Opinion. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand contemporary Japan and the politics of freedom of expression in the Abe era.
