Peer reviewedPerkin, Harold – Higher Education Review, 1981
Britain and Japan are shown to be two pioneers of industrialism who took different roads to power and wealth. Each society imbues an institution with its own values and meaning--the Japanese with the spirit of participative self-fulfillment, the British with acquisitive individualism with concern for one's neighbor.
