Measures of gender equality confirm that Japan – a wealthy, secular country with a highly-educated population – has high levels of gender inequality. This research investigated why Japanese women enjoy a high sense of well-being in this context of inequality. The presenters examine various aspects of the lived experiences of women, uncovering change across social and political life. But they also find that this change is not uniform, while some areas have experienced rapid change, other areas have experienced virtually none.
