    King-O’Riain, Rebecca Chiyoko (2017) Book Review: Embedded Racism: Japan’s Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination. Sociology of Race and Ethnicity, 3 (4). pp. 581-582. ISSN 2332-6492

    Abstract

    Embedded Racism: Japan’s Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination by Debito Arudou presents some interesting examples of racial discrimination in Japan. Whereas other authors of Japan have written about Japan’s changing demographics or changing Japanese identity, Arudou uses cases of racial discrimination against people who are “visibly different” in Japan to bring together a discussion of the two.
