A significant component of Japan's industrialization can be traced back to the textile industry of the nineteenth century, whereby Japanese rulers were prepared to do just about anything to stay away from the influence of Western advancement. Utilizing a labor force comprised of mostly the female gender, Tsurumi (1992) illustrates how Meiji's silk and cotton operations set a precedent for an entire industry that ultimately provided Japan with both a tremendous economic boost and a viable way to stave off Western intrusion. By comparison, American women were experiencing much the same gender marginalization in the workplace without benefit of at least some level of social value like their Japanese counterparts. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
