A History of Discriminated Buraku Communities in Japan

By Kurokawa Midori, Teraki Nobuaki, Kurokawa Midori

First study published in English. An intractable, divisive social problem with roots in pre-history, the ongoing discrimination against D wa communities (Buraku). Identified with 'unclean' work linked to specific occupations, their resulting marginalization and isolation within society as a whole remains a veiled yet contested issue.
