Description:

This book gives voice to Japanese men and women, and to the British who have worked for non-Westeners in the West. A significant and timely analysis of the influence of non-Western companies in the city.

Synopsis:

The globalisation of the present day world economy means that more and more people are experiencing different cultures through their work. Focusing on the real experiences of workers in Japanese transnational finance companies, this book not only throws light on this specific case, but at the same time raises timely questions and insights into the newly-emerging multicultural work experience worldwide. Japanese Bankers in the City of London reflects on contemporary discussions in sociology, anthropology and cultural studies, of individual global movement and cultural interaction.
