✦ Synopsis

This book provides a framework to break down Japanese low fertility into physiological, behavioral, and social factors, which may eventually help to understand the mechanisms of fertility change in the country. It is the first publication to summarize limited numbers of previous research projects on proximate determinants of fertility in Japan. Although a significant portion of previous studies in this field were published in Japanese, this book collects such information and introduces it to an international audience. In addition, the authors propose directions for future research required to fill the gap in this research area in Japan. By examining previous data on proximate determinants of fertility in this country in comparison to those of other countries, the book also sheds light on similarities and differences between populations in Japan and other countries in terms of fertility level and its components.
