“If the Japanese still see themselves as superior to everyone else, why do they seem not to express it as in the past and why the seeming ‘’worship’’ of sorts of things (and sometimes people of American descent) American?”
Although over the years I have had considerable interaction with the Japanese at the business level and my experiences correlate with my comment, this is not an original thought by me. Actually there have been lots of books and articles written about this. So, if this is something you are really interested in you can find all the information you want just by doing a little Googling. I think you will find your journey most interesting :)
Yep, i am intereste in the subject.
Why do I get the impression you know I will discover some things are not as they appear to be.
Rhetorical, I know.
