Labour Market Dualism and Diversification in Japan
本文指出日本劳动力市场不仅存在正规与非正规就业的二元性，还因政府放松管制而出现正规就业的灵活化与多样化，同时工会因资源不足难以抵制新自由主义变革。
Abstract The Japanese labour market has been regarded as ‘dualistic’ in terms of employment status (regular vs non‐regular). While it is true, this perspective misses recent changes in regular employment in terms of labour flexibility. The government has attempted labour market deregulation since the 1990s to increase the flexibility of not only non‐regular but also regular employment, and the labour market has become more diversified. Labour unions lack power resources to resist these neoliberal changes, however, because of their insufficient access to policy‐making, low union density and a lack of solidarity against the background of economic stagnation and competition under globalization.
