Japanese culture just goes along perfectly well with the capitalist logic. Their huge entertainment/culture industry require capitalism to work. Japan will lose its unique identity if it ever abandons capitalism.

In Japan it's a taboo thing to be an actual leftist. You shouldn't be political to begin with. They think you're just justifying your incompetence if you point out any structural issues. It doesn't help that they are mostly sealed off from the world and within Japan no one does leftist analysis.

Same thing happens in the US, though, and in the UK. Students from expensive private schools in the US and "public schools" in the UK comprise much of the student body in the higher-tier "elite" universities. While I'm not sure if it's to a similar extent, the process you're describing is far from unknown in the West, and I wouldn't be surprised if the system originally mimicked the US or UK, or some combination of Western educational systems with this "elite filtering" as a goal, even if Japan's system has become something all its own at this point.

Building denser cities
Promoting fordism
Promoting division of labour

Because it capitalizes off some cultural trait in the Japanese that drives them to work themselves to death or face social stigma. Unlike other countries for which the touch of neoliberalism assimilated, Japan, perhaps because its homogeneity and ethnocentrism, has preserved some vestige of its traditional culture. This culture is very hierarchical and conformist. It's as if the major corporations in Japan are like feudal clans, with the CEO being daimyo and the businessman samurai retainers and workers ashigaru levies. To not work is seen as shameful, and to work for one of these big name corporations is seen as the epitome of success . Unlike the western capitalist countries, in which one works for oneself, it almost seems that in Japan one works for society, or works for the company, first and foremost. As this is a sign of a diligent and conscientious contributor even though it is really a form of exploitation. In this way, capitalist exploitation of labor is veiled and sublimated by cultural norms and expectations.

Before the crisis hit hard in 1920s, Japan had mainly light industries dependent on buying foreign supplies, so, clothes, dyes, cheap manufacturing, stuff like that. After 1920s, when Japan was faced with heightened competition and the need to expand militarily, Japan started creating it's own heavy industries, including supply base in Manchuria and Korea.

>>659195 This pattern is even more pronounced in South Korea, which scores low on metrics of individualism, extremely high in uncertainty avoidance (which is a measure of traditionalism and rule-following behavior), and extremely high in long-term orientation (the tendency to prepare for the future rather than live for the moment. It also scores low in indulgence, which is the willingness to engage in discretionary expenditures for hedonistic pleasure.
I think these factors explain the effectiveness of capitalism in Asian countries despite the cultural differences in western countries. And it may reflect a more stable and durable form of capitalism in contrast to the west.
Low levels of individualism essentially mean that large, integrated corporate structures are amenable to the culture. Uncertainty avoidance lends itself toward compliance toward these structures and therefore their firm sociopolitical embedding. Most of all, the very high long term orientation is the logic of the capital accumulation of investment.
So Asian capitalist economies have a more "slow and steady wins the race" toward capital, in which they invest in and build up a steady capital framework through thrift and diligence. This is in stark contrast to a country like the USA which has almost completely inverted cultural profile. It scores very high in individualism, lower in uncertainty avoidance, lower in long-term orientation, and higher in indulgence.
American capitalism is characterized by risky gambling, finantial speculation, and the selfishness and greed of individual investors destabilizing the entire economic system. Hence why the US is almost always the epicenter of market crashes. Asian countries have an entirely different, culturally adapted form of capitalism which is more rational.
Also I am aware of that asian countries aren't completely collectivist ant colonies that consist of drones diligently gathering a pile of crumbs for the hive to survive the winter and that there are many exceptions. But certainly in terms of their business culture they have a more strict hierarchical and collectivized set of norms.
The key point is that the risk aversion and long term orientation of many Asian economies lends itself toward a more stable and steady form of capitalism which insulates it from wild market fluctuations and speculative bubbles.
Of course, I know full well about the 1986-1991 Japanese asset bubble which displayed the symptoms of American style speculation on asset prices. And the troubles in China's real estate market today. This is still capitalism and as such these instabilities are inescapable. The point is that they may be less frequent and less destabilizing (more solvable) in these countries because of how they have culturally integrated capitalism in contrast to the free-wheeling west.
BTW data was taken from this Finnish "cultural analytics firm" and may be bullshit but it certainly comes across as intuitive.

>>659426 it should be noted that this east asian unique style of capitalism only appeared vvhen these states vvere the most dirigsme.
After financial and economic liberalization tho after the 1980s, these states started taking in a lot of characteristics of vvestern regimes.
like besides the japanese financial bubble in sk there was also the increasing unstability of the sk financial system that in many ways had simmilar problems to the american system
so yeah

>>659426 East asian capitalists benefitted heavily from China opening up and China's willingness to work for foreigners. Just like Taiwan is 100% dependent on China for everything, so are Japan and South Korea. Those were buffer states ala Yugoslavia, full of retarded problems, but nonetheless benefitting from both worlds' trade.
There's no troubles in China's real estate market.

Their corporate elite are nationalists and put their nation's interests first, even before competition. Japanese corporations work together against foreign corporations. That's why people love them.

but once economic and political liberalization happened heh well lets just say japanese companies started moving out from japan

Anonymous 2021-12-26 (Sun) 15:36:28 No. 661589
>>661560 Because most people are apathetic about their society and just go with the flow. The boom times are over, and those times were a carryover of an extremely militarized Shows era where they simply redirected the spirit of dying for your emperor in battle to working to death for your company. But now that doesn't bear fruit as even their former Korean and Taiwanese colonies have better electronics and chip manufacturing. So most people just keep their head down and hope they can keep their job, while they slave away slowly while munching on convenience store food.
