Nouvelle parution : A Sociology of Journalism in Japan: The Last Empire of the Press
Vient de paraître le livre de César Castellvi (Maître de conférence à l’Université Paris Cité, chercheur associé du CRJ) A Sociology of Journalism in Japan: the Last Empire of the Press (Routledge, mai 2024)
Il s’agit de la traduction en anglais d’un ouvrage initialement publié en français chez CNRS Éditions en 2022 : Le dernier empire de la presse : une sociologie du journalisme au Japon
Cette version a été mise à jour et complétée par un chapitre inédit.
This book represents an in-depth analysis of journalism in Japan during the golden era of the daily press and the gradual introduction of digital technology starting from the mid-1980s to the late 2010s.
By presenting firsthand testimony from journalists and field notes collected from fieldwork in the newsroom of one of the country’s largest newspapers, this book provides a unique insight into Japan’s highly active yet relatively under-institutionalized journalistic profession. It also explores the changes experienced by the organizational development of Japanese journalism in response to broader changes in Japanese society, such as the emergence of social networks, the evolution of reading practices, the demographic situation, and the new aspirations of the Japanese youth.
Based on an extensive ethnographic fieldwork carried out by the author over several years, this book will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Japanese society, journalism, and media studies.
