{"product_id":"9780819193049","title":"Labor Relations: Japanese Business Novel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book gives an insider's account of Japanese labor management. Its fictional narrative opens as a quasi-mystery with a television newscast reporting on a 400 million yen embezzlement by a chief accountant. Within this framework the novel charts the relationship between the store's labor union and its top management which is in cahoots with a governmental politician. This book describes department store sales strategies, the manipulations of administrators, and their psychological impact on the sales staff. Through its unique format, Labor Relations commands a socio-economic landscape ubiquitous in, if not typical of, the Japanese business world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47016849211632,"sku":"9780819193049","price":56.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780819193049","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
