Since the 1990s, increasing economic and financial globalization has steadily eroded the Japanese style of business based on relationships and influenced the awareness and practices of CSR that are unique to Japanese companies. In Japan’s two “lost decades” after the bubble economy, the business model and corporate financing seem to have continued a gradual financial reform toward a more market-oriented system. CSR awareness and practices of Japanese companies have been influenced by social and environmental issues that global society and communities face. Furthermore, the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011 triggered increasing attention paid to the responsibility of business toward society. In this process, major players in corporate governance and components of governance structure have continued to change. The conventional view of Japanese corporate governance and corporate finance is too narrow to understand this field in Japan. This book is based on empirical research to investigate how multifaceted CSR has aligned with business and finance and has influenced the corporate governance structure of Japanese companies. The findings and discussions in this book act are stepping stones in further research on the linkages between business and society, and provide empirical evidence on changes in Japanese corporate finance and governance. 000839569 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed June 1, 2018). 000839569 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000839569 650_0 $$aSocial responsibility of business$$zJapan. 000839569 650_0 $$aCorporations$$zJapan$$xFinance. 000839569 7001_ $$aTakehara, Hitoshi,$$eauthor. 000839569 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9789811089855 000839569 830_0 $$aAdvances in Japanese business and economics ;$$vv. 17. 000839569 852__ $$bebk 000839569 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-8986-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000839569 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:839569$$pGLOBAL_SET 000839569 980__ $$aEBOOK 000839569 980__ $$aBIB 000839569 982__ $$aEbook 000839569 983__ $$aOnline 000839569 994__ $$a92$$bISE
