Preferred term

Japanese transplants  

Definition

  • Japanese transplants emerged as a phenomenon and concept during the 1980s as a result of the increase of Japanese-invested production facilities in Western industrialized countries. The Japanese transplants entailed the transfer of production, personnel, and labor management systems originating in Japan to foreign soil, attracting a great deal of attention from social science researchers.
