商品描述

This Open Access book is the first book to share in-depth narratives outlining the lived experiences of Japanese and Latin American Diaspora Entrepreneurs in Brazil, Mexico and Japan. It focuses in on the career paths of forty-seven entrepreneurs exploring how they negotiate their identity, culture, and heritage as they set-up businesses in a country outside their country of origin. In our previous book we explored Japanese Self-Initiated Expatriate Entrepreneurs (SIEE) in Southeast Asia, yet we see a significant difference between self-initiated expatriate entrepreneurs and second and third generation diaspora Japanese Latin American entrepreneurs. This book represents the entrepreneurs, their journeys, their successes, and their struggles. It provides a framework for better understanding diaspora ethnic entrepreneurship in cases where multiple identities and cultures are intertwined. This research exposes the political, sociological, economic, and cultural complexities of diaspora entrepreneurship as a means to support oneself in a 'foreign', yet somewhat familiar, country of destination. This book thus creates a new understanding of what it is to be a diaspora entrepreneur of Japanese heritage in a variety of contexts.

This groundbreaking book delves into the compelling narratives of Japanese and Latin American diaspora entrepreneurs in Japan, Mexico, and Brazil. It highlights the career paths of 47 entrepreneurs, revealing how they navigate their identities, cultures, and heritage while establishing businesses far from their countries of origin. Unlike our previous book on Japanese Self-Initiated Expatriate Entrepreneurs (SIEE), this edition also uncovers the unique experiences of second and third-generation Japanese Latin American entrepreneurs. Through their stories of triumph and struggle, this book provides a deeper understanding of diaspora ethnic entrepreneurship, where multiple identities and cultures intersect. It also sheds light on the political, sociological, economic, and cultural complexities faced by these entrepreneurs as they build their lives in 'foreign' yet familiar lands. Discover a new perspective on what it means to be a diaspora entrepreneur of Japanese heritage in diverse contexts.

這本開放存取的書籍是第一本深入探討在巴西、墨西哥和日本的日本及拉丁美洲僑民企業家生活經歷的書籍。它專注於四十七位企業家的職業道路，探索他們在設立業務於外國時如何協商自己的身份、文化和傳承。在我們之前的書中，我們探討了東南亞的日本自發性外派企業家（Self-Initiated Expatriate Entrepreneurs, SIEE），但我們看到自發性外派企業家與第二、第三代的日本拉丁美洲僑民企業家之間存在顯著差異。這本書代表了這些企業家，他們的旅程、成功與掙扎。它提供了一個框架，以更好地理解在多重身份和文化交織的情況下的僑民族裔企業家精神。這項研究揭示了僑民企業家精神的政治、社會學、經濟和文化複雜性，作為在一個「外國」但又有些熟悉的目的地國家中自我支持的手段。因此，這本書創造了一種新的理解，讓我們了解在各種情境中作為日本血統的僑民企業家是什麼樣的經歷。
