About this product
Product Information
This highly informed case-study and fascinating narrative offers a rare insider's look into the politics and economics of the largest and probably the most dramatic privatization undertaken in Japan to date. Yoshiyuki Kasai, who originally joined Japanese National Railways (JNR) in 1963 and is today President of JR Central, guides the reader through first-hand accounts of the history of JNR's break-up, the political and internal obstacles that had to be dealt with as part of the reform process, and the major lessons drawn throughout his experiences. As JNR's Deputy Director-General of the Personnel Department during the break-up process, Kasai's story of the historic battle with government, unions and the labour force before privatization finally took place in 1987, is informed by both empathy and a great deal of realism. The success of Japan's railway privatization is of interest worldwide. Hence the book concludes with a round-table discussion between the author, Diethelm Sack of Deutsche Bahn and Sir Steve Robson in which they address the major issues encountered in railway reform in Japan, Germany and Great Britain.

- h***i (37)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller kindly got in touch to say the book I ordered did not meet the quality advertised due to being found to be in a poor condition at the packing stage. Unfortuntely no replacement was available and would I like to pick a book of equivalent value from the marketplace - which I did. That book arrived safely and was in the condition advertised. I have used this seller many times before and I am grateful for their quality control decission, rather than send me a damaged book. Will use again.
