In-8, broché, couverture imprimée, 189, (1) p., nombreuses statistiques. Edition originale et unique. L'auteur était commissaire-adjoint du Japon à l'Exposition universelle de 1900 et chargé du service industriel du Ministère de l'Agriculture et du commerce. "L’auteur peut se prévaloir d’une double expérience. Il a été chargé du service industriel au sein du ministère de l’Agriculture et du Commerce. A ce titre, il a participé à la rédaction d’un projet de loi ouvrière dont il analyse le contenu. Il a en outre été nommé commissaire adjoint du Japon pour l’exposition universelle de 1900 qui se tient à Paris dont il escompte qu’elle ‘permettra au Japon de se montrer sous son vrai jour’ (...). Dans cet ouvrage, Kashiro Saïto dresse un tableau de la situation économique et sociale de son pays et expose des vues plus personnelles. Il relève notamment: ‘Une législation ouvrière s’impose, au Japon, soit au point de vue de l’intérêt public, soit au point de vue de l’intérêt privé (…)’. La première publication en langue française spécifiquement consacrée à la question de la législation ouvrière au Japon" (cf. F. Lekéal, ‘Regards croisés sur la législation ouvrière au Japon’, colloque franco-japonais organisé par le Centre d’Histoire Judiciaire (Lille 2) et la division du Chubu de l’Association japonaise d’histoire du droit, janvier 2014, Université de Nagoya). Quelques petits accrocs à la couverture. Bon exemplaire. Rare.

ix, 86 pages. Tissue-protected photographic frontis portrait of author and numerous other photographic plates.

Yedo, Japanese Consul in Vancouver, B.C. Light wear and soiling to yellow boards. Binding sound. A well-preserved copy of this fascinating work which is of much interest to latter day Japanophiles.

176 pages. "After many years of low-cost mass production, the Japanese have long since shifted the focus of their efforts to the development of high-quality technical products. In many cases the designs of the new generation serve as prototypes which may have only an indirect influence on later production. The examples presented in this book thus anticipate the design offensive to come from Japan." - from front flap. Colour photography throughout. Clean, bright and unmarked with minimal wear. Very nice copy. Book
