Protecting the Weak in East Asia: Framing, Mobilisation and Institutionalisation (Routledge Contemporary Asia Series): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Protecting the Weak in East Asia: Framing, Mobilisation and Institutionalisation (Routledge Contemporary Asia Series)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book investigates public claims for the protection of weak groups and interests in Japan and China from the nineteenth century to the present day. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, it engages with ongoing global debates relevant to both Western and non-Western societies whilst also providing an historically informed analysis of contemporary issues.

Using case studies on disaster victims, employee well-being, cultural heritage and animal welfare, this book analytically distinguishes between framing, mobilisation and institutionalisation processes. It examines these processes at the intersections of international and domestic spheres and, in doing so, demonstrates how drives for protection are formulated, contested and played out in practice. Ultimately however, this book argues that claims for protection do not necessarily translate into effective measures, but may in fact entail ambiguous or negative outcomes for the protected weak.

Protecting the Weak in East Asia makes a significant contribution to the empirical and theoretical research into the transformation of East Asian societies. As such, it will appeal to students and scholars of Asian history, Asian culture and society and East Asian Studies more broadly.
