Product Information
This book offers the first detailed study of why the number of unmarried Japanese mothers has hardly changed since 1955, despite the prevalence of certain factors in Japan (more later marriages, higher divorce rate, and so on) that have brought about significant increases in lone mothers in even the most conservative western industrialized countries.

"This book provides a thoughtful analysis of a phenomenon that has long been used as evidence of Japan's extreme difference. Although Japan's extra-marital birthrate is much lower then other industrialized nations, Hertog convincingly attributes it to social norms about maternity, families, and gendered roles, rather than legal or financial motivations . . . Readers with interest in contemporary Japan, family and gender studies, and public health will surely find it a welcomed addition to the literature."-Allison Alexy, Contemporary Sociology, "Ekaterina Hertog's Tough Choices: Bearing an Illegitimate Child in Japan is a thoughtfully structures, clearly state book that offers insight to scholars and policy makers who are interested in family formation in Japan, its low rate of illegitimate births, and its lowest-low fertility . . . Tough Choices can be recommended for, among other things, providing a rare and graphic description of Japanese women's decisions on marriage and birth."—Hideki Nakazato, American Journal of Sociology, Ekaterina Hertog's Tough Choices: Bearing an Illegitimate Child in Japan is a thoughtfully structures, clearly state book that offers insight to scholars and policy makers who are interested in family formation in Japan, its low rate of illegitima|9780804761291|, "This book provides a thoughtful analysis of a phenomenon that has long been used as evidence of Japan's extreme difference.

It contributes to a growing body of studies that explore changing Japanese families, and demonstrates how ethnography can enhance understanding of family formation and life choices."—Lynne Nakano, Asian Anthropology, "This book provides a thoughtful analysis of a phenomenon that has long been used as evidence of Japan's extreme difference.

The book comprehensively and engagingly addresses what the author identifies as a puzzling dearth of scholarly interest in unwed motherhood in Japan . . . The work deftly combines a statistical and theoretical discussion of the situation in Japan as compared with other countries with apt examples from Hertog's own extensive fieldwork interviews. The voices of her informants enliven her arguments throughout the richly interesting narrative."-Leonie Stickland, Japanese Studies, " Tough Choices carefully avoids any kind of reductionism . . . [Hertog] carefully and skillfully unpacks the critical differences between being responsible for one's own actions and being responsible for one's own reproduction and children, and how much conceptions and perceptions of responsibility lead to particular feelings of insecurity and guilt as well as aspirations and expectations."-Nana O.

This fresh and compelling look from the margins of the Japanese family is testimony to the persistent dominance in Japanese society of the model of childbearing within marriage."- Journal of Japanese Studies, "In recent years Japan has seen dramatic demographic changes, but extramarital childbirth remains taboo. Hertog convincingly demonstrates the remarkable staying power of the norm of the two-parent family, as conveyed in the poignant words of women who, for myriad reasons, gave birth out of wedlock." -Glenda S.
