Precarious office friendships and email romance; delicate status politics; multiple femininities and masculinities; changing employment practices and career pathways; temporal and spatial practices of regulation, detection and slipping free - these analytical themes comprise the core of this book. A skillful analysis of the subtleties of language and embodiment discloses the various knowledge and practices that reinforce and subvert ideology and culture within the workplace community. This field study brings the work of continental theorists Mikhail Bakhtin, Pierre Bourdieu, and Michel de Certeau into conversation with the anthropology of Japan.
