Has 'Nordic Turn' in Japan crystalized?: politics of promoting parental leave take-up among fathers and the divergence from the Nordic system

JOURNAL OF FAMILY STUDIES 2023.2
Publisher:ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD
Michael Rush sheds light on the Japanese 'Nordic Turn' in the family policy, including a father-friendly parental leave scheme after the 2000s in his work published in 2015. Despite this and the Japanese Government's apparent desire to encourage fathers to take parental leave, the policy does not seem effective as in Nordic countries. This paper examines what makes Japan's statutory parental leave scheme difficult to work like the ones in Nordic countries by analyzing the process of the amendments of the leave scheme after the 2014 amendment. The study pays particular attention to the views expressed by the various actors involved in the law-making process on the issue of the inconsistency between bonus months, which is a father quota, and the special extension of parental leave in case of no childcare place, and how this was reflected in the final bill. The paper reveals that the process was not confined to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare but was heavily influenced by the work of the Cabinet Office, project teams of the ruling party, and private groups promoting work-life balance measures. Partly because of this, the Japanese parental leave system has diverged significantly from the Nordic and German systems to which it was originally referred.

<title>Abstract</title>
This contribution asks whether the most recent innovation of Nordic family policies, the so-called father quota, has been an object of policy learning in countries that followed the Nordic example of leave policies earlier, such as Germany, Slovenia, and Japan. Our case studies show that analyses of policy learning, especially in the social field, need to take into account the specific contexts and actor constellations in “export” and “import” countries. Rather than representing a blueprint, the Nordic father quotas have served as an inspiration within messy and fragmented processes of policy learning leading to hybrid arrangements in import countries.DOI: 10.1093/sp/jxaa041

Dimensions of Social Equality in Paid Parental Leave Policy Design: Comparing Australia and Japan
Gillian Whitehouse, Hideki Nakazato
SOCIAL INCLUSION 9 ( 2 ) 288 - 299 2021
Publisher:COGITATIO PRESS
Paid parental leave policies in both Australia and Japan fit within Dobrotic and Blum's (2020) classification of a selective employment-based entitlement model, thus offering an extension of that category beyond Europe and illustrating the wide variation possible within it. In this article we develop indices for comparing employment-based parental leave policies on three dimensions of social equality: inclusion, gender equality and redistribution. This combination offers an extension of classificatory schemes for parental leave policies and a broader basis for comparative analysis. We compare Australia and Japan on these indices and present a qualitative exploration of the origins and implications of their similarities and differences. The analysis draws attention to tensions between the three indices, illustrating intersecting and conflicting influences on the potential for paid parental leave entitlements to contribute to the amelioration of social inequalities. Overall, the comparison highlights drivers of difference within employment-based entitlement systems and underlines the need for complementary measures to advance egalitarian outcomes.

Family Strategy for Evacuees and Possible Support in the Destination Community
Nishimori Yumiko, Nakazato Hideki

Joint Work
Publisher:Japan Society of Family Sociology
The main body of this article describes the activities of “Kobe Pocket Net," a network of not-for-profit organizations that was established to support families affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake and subsequent tsunami and nuclear crisis. The authors thereby examine the problems that mothers who have evacuated from disaster-hit communities to Kobe, at an approximate distance of 800 km, face as individuals and as members of a family, together with their strategies. The article also examines how not-for-profit organizations in the destination community can support them.<br>The result shows that mothers have been actively trying to transform their difficult structural conditions with help from “communities." It also suggests that it is important to consider the multiplicity of family boundaries and moreover the multiplicity of the scope of a strategy including “communities."<br>It is also revealed that a network of not-for-profit organizations that existed before the disaster played an important role in connecting mothers who came from the same area as each other, as well as in connecting them to a new community.
