      abstract = {This book introduces the work of Yoshihiko Uchida  (19131989), one of the most prominent Japanese thinkers on  the topic of civil society in the post-World War II era.  The distinctive features of Uchidas approach to civil  society are his view of the metabolic relationship between  human beings and nature and his call for a social science  rooted in the experiences and inquiries of ordinary  citizens. This original approach did not develop in a  straight line from Uchidas early work to his mature period,  and this book follows the twists and turns in its formation  through his reflections on the relationships between "the  civil" and "the capitalistic," "the modern" and "the  pre-modern," "the historical" and "the trans-historical,"  and "science by specialists" and "inquiry by laypeople." As  a historian of economic thought, Uchida pursued these  topical themes by examining figures such as Adam Smith,  Karl Marx, and Hajime Kawakami, a prominent thinker in  Japan. By casting a light on these inquiries, this book  offers the first depiction of Uchidas body of work as a  whole and in doing so illuminates the emergence of original  democratic thought in post-war Japan.},
