In an era of irregular labor, nagging recession, nuclear contamination, and a shrinking population, Japan is facing precarious times. How the Japanese experience insecurity in their daily and social lives is the subject of Precarious Japan. Tacking between the structural conditions of socioeconomic life and the ways people are making do, or not, Anne Allison chronicles the loss of home affecting many Japanese, not only in the literal sense but also in the figurative sense of not belonging. Until the collapse of Japan's economic bubble in 1991, lifelong employment and a secure income were within reach of most Japanese men, enabling them to maintain their families in a comfortable middle-class lifestyle. Now, as fewer and fewer people are able to find full-time work, hope turns to hopelessness and security gives way to a pervasive unease. Yet some Japanese are getting by, partly by reconceiving notions of home, family, and togetherness.

非正規労働、長引く不況、核汚染、人口減少の時代、日本は不安定な時代に直面しています。日本人が日常生活や社会生活でどのように不安を経験しているかは、不安定な日本の主題です. アン・アリソンは、社会経済生活の構造的条件と、人々がやっていること、またはしていないこととの間で、文字通りの意味だけでなく、所属していないという比喩的な意味でも、多くの日本人に影響を与える家の喪失を記録しています。1991 年に日本のバブル経済が崩壊するまで、ほとんどの日本人男性は終身雇用と安定した収入を得ることができ、快適な中産階級の生活で家族を維持することができました。現在、フルタイムの仕事を見つけることができる人がますます少なくなっているため、希望は絶望に変わり、安全は広範な不安に取って代わられています. それでも、一部の日本人は、家、家族、一体感の概念を再考することによって、うまくやっています.
