Abstract Substantial family and work macro-level change has been occurring in Japan. Examples include a decline in the availability of jobs that afford lifetime protection against unemployment, an increase in jobs that do not carry benefits such as a pension, an increase in age at marriage and at first birth, and an increase in marital dissolution. Using life history data from the 2000 National Survey on Family and Economic Conditions, young Japanese appear to have responded to these macro-level changes in a fairly orderly manner. Marriage and childbearing have been postponed, but marriage still precedes childbearing. Education is completed prior to starting work. For men, once work commences they continue working. For women, the classic conflict between work and family roles is evident. For men and women in both the family and work spheres Japanese young adults have more orderly life course trajectories than American young adults. Keywords: Life Course, Japan, Work, Family, Fertility Introduction Japan, along with all other countries that were both non-communist and industrialized by 1960, has experienced major change in both the work and family spheres.http://www.jfvtransports.com/home/content/delta-22-540-type-2-manual Painting with a broad brush, changes in the work sphere have included an increase in jobs that require more skills with a concomitant increase in educational attainment of young adults, an outsourcing of high-pay low-skill manufacturing jobs to countries with lower wage levels, an increasing globalization of economies, a reduction in jobs that have an explicit or implicit promise of lifetime employment, an increase in service jobs, an increase in employment opportunities for women including career-type jobs along with an increase in the proportion of women in the paid labor force, and a reduction in the likelihood that a parent will posses job-specific skills and wisdom that can be passed on to sons and daughters. While the details vary, all of these changes can be found in Japan, Western Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand. In the family sphere, the changes, sometimes termed the “second demographic transition” ( van de Kaa 1987; Lesthaeghe 1995 ), have included, increasing participation of women in the paid labor force, delayed marriage and parenthood, increasing levels of non-marriage or never becoming a parent, increasing levels of non-marital fertility, cohabitation, divorce and single parent families, and increased use of child care services to minimize the strain between mother and worker roles. These changes have been widely discussed (e.g. Bumpass 1990; Caldwell 2004; Inglehart 1977, 1990; Lesthaeghe and Moors 2000; van de Kaa 1987, 2001 ). Their implications are profound for both the family and the economy. For example, because of increases in unmarried childbearing and divorce in the U.S. a higher proportion of children spend time in single-parent families, and there is now widespread agreement that children in a single-parent family are at a disadvantage relative to their peers in two parent families ( Brown 2004; DeLeire and Kalil 2002; Hill, Yeung and Duncan 2001; McLanahan and Sandefur 1994 ), though interpretations differ concerning the magnitude and mechanisms of the effects. Low levels of fertility combined with migration restrictions have led to the onset of population decline in Japan and imminent decline in several European countries ( Sardon 2004 ), but opinions differ with respect to whether this is a problem or a benefit (e.g. Morgan 2003 ). These broad work and family changes have affected the life course of young adults: expanding the time spent in school, delaying entry into full-time employment, delaying marriage and parenthood. The changes have also increased the opportunity for changes in the order in which events occur in the life courses of young men and women. In some countries, for example, many young adults are now in school at ages when marriages and childbearing traditionally occurred, changes in economic opportunities allow young women to become mothers before becoming wives, and returning to school for additional education has become commonplace. Rooted in socio-cultural theories of age and social relations ( Elder 1998; Elder, Johnson and Crosnoe 2004; Ryder 1965 ), the life course perspective refers to a sequence of socially defined, age-graded roles that the individual occupies over time. A set of components of the life course framework revolve around the timing of roles and role transitions, as well as the order in which they occur. Most societies have expectations about the timing of the adoption of such adult roles as worker, spouse and parent, and hence the timing of role transitions can be thought of as early, on time, or late ( Elder 1998; Riley, Johnson and Foner 1972; Rindfuss 1991; Settersten 2004 ). This paper examines the timing and patterning of young adult roles for one country, Japan, and makes comparisons with existing work on the United States, and to a lesser extent Norway. In the next section we describe why Japan is of interest in terms of the changing work and family situation. This description is at the macro level, using published, aggregate statistics. In the micro-level empirical work in this paper, the timing of work and family transitions is examined, followed by a demonstration of the diversity of young adult trajectories. We then show that the life course trajectories of young men and women tend to be orderly, that is, they exhibit a pattern that follows normative expectations. To preview our results, we find the work and family life-course trajectories of young adult Japanese to be very orderly, with “order” being defined by traditional expectations in the work and family spheres, and much more so than in either the U.S. or Norway. Japan Japan differs strikingly from many Western post-industrial societies. Consider the work sphere first. Schools play a more important role in obtaining a job ( Inui 2003; Ishida 1998; Ishida, Spilerman and Su 1997 ). For most of the past 40 years, the “new graduate recruitment system” has been the principal mechanism whereby young Japanese men and women obtain a job. Under this system, schools (both high schools and universities) act as middle-men in the recruitment process for “regular” jobs, that is jobs that offer fringe benefits and fall under the lifetime employment model. If a young person finishes school in a year when economic conditions are such that there are few full-time job openings, he or she might be forced to take a job without benefits, security and job advancement possibilities. This can have long-term implications because when the economy rebounds employers will prefer hiring new graduates. The nature of the Japanese economy and the types of jobs available to young people has been changing. Beginning 2003, the Japanese economy showed signs of a strong recovery until the recent worldwide economic crisis triggered by problems in the U.S. financial system. Concomitant with rapid economic growth in postwar Japan, educational levels and paid employment (as opposed to employment in family enterprises) have increased dramatically, along with the educational requirements of most jobs. In an attempt to increase their competitiveness and profitability, employers have begun to move away from the lifetime employment model ( Boling 2008 ). This resulted in the rise of employees working in temporary positions as keiyaku (those hired under a fixed-term contract with limited provisions of social insurance and other fringe benefits) and haken (contract work whereby an agency sends workers to a corporation for a specified period) ( Statistics Bureau 2001 ). The proliferation of temporary employment among young adults not only harms their job prospects, but also poses profound implications for marriage and family building ( Oppenheimer 1994; Oppenheimer, Kalmijn and Lim 1997; Tsuya 2009 ). A final, related but different, trend has been an increase in young adults who are neither in school nor in the labor force. Borrowing a term that originated in the United Kingdom, the Japanese government began measuring the number of “NEETs” (Not in Education, Employment or Training) in 2000. Based on the population censuses, it is estimated to have increased 2.6 times from around 290,000 in 1995 to 750,000 in 2000, constituting a little over 2 of the population of that age group. The number is projected to rise to around 1.2 million by 2020 ( Kadokura 2004 ). It is important to recognize that Japan shares a Confucian familial-cultural heritage with other countries in East Asia, such as South Korea, China and Taiwan that have been undergoing rapid industrialization in recent decades (e.g. Brinton and Lee 2001; Chang and Lee 2006; Goldstein and Feng 1996; Mason, Tsuya, and Choe 1998; Peng 1991; Thornton and Lin 1994; Tien 1984 ). The government's system for registering legal residence ( koseki ) keeps track of lineages, and in Japan's birth registration system children born to unmarried mothers are still officially referred to as “illegitimate children” ( hi-chakushutsu-shi ), a stigma with negative consequences for children. Both this tradition and the koseki system likely influence the probability of non-marital fertility. With respect to marriage, it is helpful to think of post-war marriage as a “package” to highlight the culturally defined linkage of marriage, childbearing, childrearing and frequently care of elderly parents of the husband ( Rindfuss 2004; also see Coleman 1983 ), in what was expected to be a life long commitment. Further, the burden of household tasks falls overwhelmingly, and some would say “exclusively,” on the wife ( Ishii-Kuntz and Maryanski 2003; Tsuya et al. 2005 ). With increases in education and employment opportunities for young women, the attractiveness of this marriage package has likely declined because upon marriage, traditionally, wives were expected to cease their employment and were to devote themselves full-time to household tasks. The very dramatic decline in marriages in the young adult years reflects the relative attractiveness of employment opportunities, the concomitant unattractiveness of the traditional marriage package, and, as we discuss next, the advantages of remaining single ( Raymo and Iwasawa 2008 ). Among never-married young adults, co-residence with parents is very common. Since young men and women are often not expected to financially assist the household even when they are employed, these unmarried young adults tend to have substantial disposable income to use for travel, shopping or whatever else they desire, which also likely decreases the attractiveness of the traditional marriage package. Also indicative of a questioning of the marriage package is evidence that divorce probabilities have been increasing. They are now at implied cumulative levels of about 30 within 20 years of marriage ( Raymo, Iwasawa and Bumpass 2004 ). Unlike the pattern found in Western countries when age at marriage increased, Japan has not witnessed a large increase in nonmarital fertility. Nonmarital births account for approximately 2 percent of all births ( National Institute of Population and Social Security Research 2007b: 67), which is far lower than any Western European nation ( Sardon 2004 ). With an increase in age at marriage and no substantial increase in nonmarital fertility, levels of period fertility have declined substantially. Japan experienced a dramatic decline in fertility shortly after World War II. In one decade the TFR dropped from 4.5 to 2.0. It was then stable in the 2.0 to 2.2 range for nearly two decades. In 1975 it began to decline again, reaching a low of 1.26 in 2005 ( Statistics and Information Department 2006 ). Further, the proportion of couples who had their first child by the end of their second year of marriage has been decreasing since the mid-1970s, indicating a weakening of the tendency of couples to have their first child soon after marriage ( National Institute of Population and Social Security Research 2006: 34). To summarize, in Japan, there has been considerable macro change in the educational and employment environments, with young men and women staying in school longer, starting their careers later and facing structural changes in the workplace, along with a pattern of delayed marriage and childbearing in the family sphere. In the face of such macro change, how are young women and men constructing their life courses, within the work sphere, the family sphere, and across the two. To answer this we turn to micro-level data. Data and analytic issues The micro-level data for this paper are from the National Survey on Family and Economic Conditions (NSFEC) in Japan which was conducted in November 2000. The fertility data was collected via standard questions that asked if the respondent had any children, and if yes, their dates of birth. Unfortunately, only ever-married women were asked the fertility questions. This means that there may be some respondents in our data set who have never married and have had one or more children. Since one of the issues we address is the order of events in the family sphere (marriage and childbearing), this means that we are underestimating non-marital childbearing. How much might this affect our results. Ever-married women could report non-marital births on the NSFEC, and they do so at a level one would expect given the low proportion of non-marital births in Japan. So, in interpreting our results it will be important to remember that non-marital births are underreported, but the magnitude of underreporting is unlikely to affect our broad conclusions. For the other domains, data comes from a table that the respondents filled out. The rows in the table were activities such as going to school, working full time, and so forth. The columns were calendar years, beginning with 1980 and ending with 2000. For each activity they were instructed to “circle the year the activity began, and the year it ended. Then draw a line connecting the two circles. Do this for as many times as you started and ended the indicated activity. If you stopped one activity for a while and started it again in the same year, draw two circles in the year. Leave the row blank if you have not done the activity or behavior.” Our pretests indicated that respondents had no trouble understanding the instructions and filling out the matrix, and experience in the actual survey confirmed this. The data available for analysis are illustrated in Chart 1, where the columns indicate birth cohort (or age in 2000) and the rows represent activity years from 2000 back to 1980. The entries in Chart 1 show the age of a respondent in a particular activity year given their birth cohort. We are interested in the sequences or trajectories of roles occupied during the young adult years. It can be seen that if we were to look at ages 20 through 40, there is only one cohort (1960) in our data set that spans the entire 21 years. On the other hand, if we wanted to examine just the sequences of roles occupied between age 25 and 29, a span of 5 years, we would have complete information for cohorts 1955 to 1971, 17 cohorts. We are interested in the young adult years, which are demographically dense when people are making the transition from student to worker and from family of orientation to family of procreation. This experience can be seen in the shaded portions of the top and bottom panels of Chart 1. Open in a separate window Chart 1 Cohorts, periods and ages included in the analyses Two aspects of the data warrant further discussion. First, with such a limited set of cohorts we cannot carefully examine cohort change; we simply do not have data for enough cohorts for long enough portions of their life course. Hence the “change” in the title of this paper (Order admidst change) does not refer to cohort change; rather the “change” refers to the macro-level, transformational changes in the work sphere that have occurred in Japan as discussed above. These are changes that, other things being equal, would be expected to influence life course event, timing and sequence. So what we examine is the behavior of individuals as they live their lives during a period of rapid change at the macro level. In future work we plan to explicitly examine cohort change. Second, it is important to note that our data are yearly rather than monthly 2, and this has both advantages and disadvantages. The principal advantage is that it allows us to “see” the main features of young men and women without being distracted by short-term fluctuations. And these main features are probably the ones best remembered by respondents. Timing of events We begin by examining the timing of events: when do young adults finish school, first marry and first become a parent. Table 1, based on life table estimates, shows the cumulative proportion having left school, married and a parent for ages 18, 21, 25, and 30. Overall, people leave school at a relatively early age while marrying and becoming parents at a relatively late age, leaving, on average, a relatively large number of years between the start of adult employment commitments and the start of adult family responsibilities. Put differently, young Japanese men and women have many years of earning a salary or wage before they take on spouse and family responsibilities. This reduces the demographic density of the young adult years, and also is related to the relatively low level of fertility that currently exists in Japan. Table 1 Cumulative proportion who have left school, married and became a parent, at ages 18, 21, 25 and 30, by gender left school married became a parent Age male female male female male female 18 7 3 0 1 1 0 21 59 74 3 6 2 3 25 95 99 24 47 10 21 30 100 100 53 73 37 56 Open in a separate window Women finish school, marry and become a parent at younger ages than men. For example, at age 21, three-quarters of the women had left school compared to approximately three-fifths of the men. Given that education has increased more rapidly for women than men in recent cohorts, this gender difference in school-leaving age has probably declined in more recent cohorts. By age 25, almost half of the women had married compared to a quarter of the men. And by age 30, 56 percent of the women had become a parent compared to 37 percent of the men. Trajectories The life table results in Table 1 provide an opportunity to examine the timing of events, but they do not provide a clear overview of the life course experience of young adults, and to better understand the flexibility or rigidity of the young adult life course one needs a more holistic approach. Put differently, the life table approaches, as well as its multivariate variations such as event history analysis, allow one to focus on an event (e.g. a birth, a job start) and the reoccurrence of that event, but even with strong assumptions about causality they do not show how the event in question relates to other events in the person's life. (For discussion of the issues and some methods to overcome limitations of the life table approach see: Billari and Piccarreta 2005; Taris and Feij 1999; Wu 2000.) Our approach to obtain an overview or holistic understanding of the life course of young Japanese men and women is what Billari and Piccarreta (2005) term “frequency distributions of sequences.” We first divide events and states into the family sphere (marriage and parenthood) and the work sphere (education and employment). Consider the family sphere first, and the eleven years of the life course between ages 20 and 30 (panel A of Chart 1 ). In the family sphere, we have three marital statuses, never married, married and post-married (separated, divorced or widowed) and two parenthood statuses, not a parent and parent 3. Cross-classifying these two statuses results in six possibilities:In each of the eleven years, a person is classified into one of these six possibilities. Stringing together the eleven classifications results in a sequence or trajectory that captures, with a yearly rather than a monthly or daily brush, that person's family experience during the time they were 20 to 30. So, for example, a person who remained unmarried and not a parent throughout the eleven years would have this sequence:Someone who married at age 24, became a parent at age 27 and stayed married would have the following sequence:In the next section we examine one aspect of similarity, but it is important to recognize that there are numerous other aspects of similarity that we do not examine. In the work sphere, we have in school or not, employed part-time or not, and employed full-time or not. Since these can be combined in every possible way (for example simultaneously working a full-time and a part-time job), we have eight categories:The first thing that is evident is that there are a relatively large number of unique sequences. The average number of respondents per trajectory ranges from 3 to 14. Part of the reason is that there are more women in the sample than men, itself a function of higher response rates for women. But differences in number of respondents are only a small piece of the explanation. The bigger issue, to which we return below, is the gender differences in the way that work and family spheres impinge on one another, an indication of which is the very large disparity in the number of sequences in the work sphere for men and women. Table 2 Aspects of life course trajectories by age component of the life course, family or work sphere, and gender Number of respondents Number of unique trajectories Number of respondents per trajectory Number of one person trajectories Percent of trajectories with one person For every paired comparison in Table 2 except one, there is a greater diversity of sequences in the work than family sphere. This is partly a function of more categories in the work sphere, but that is not the complete story. It is also partly a function of delayed marriage and childbearing past age 30 and 35, but, again, that is not the complete story. For women, again, the likely explanation is balancing work and family roles. Table 2 also shows the number of sequences that are occupied by only one person. Similar patterns are seen. Women have more one-person sequences than men, and the work sphere has more one-person sequences than the family sphere. In the work sphere, approximately three-quarters of the sequences are occupied by one person. Chart 2 shows the trajectories with the highest percentage of respondents for each gender and age combination. Open in a separate window Chart 2 Most common trajectory by age component of the life course, family or work sphere, and gender How do these patterns compare to experience in other countries. The only comparison of which we are aware is for the United States using data from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972 ( Rindfuss 1991 ). So the comparison involves numerous differences. Order and disorder Parents, teachers, employers, and society in general have expectations about desired or preferred employment and family trajectories for young adults. These expectations partly stem from concerns that some trajectories might have negative consequences for the young man or woman. An example might be a young unmarried person who has stopped their education but is not employed, either full- or part-time. The parent would worry about the implications for the person's career and perhaps his or her marriage prospects. The teacher might worry whether the person is living up to his or her potential. A prospective employer might worry about the work habits of such a person. Expectations also stem from everyday observations of friends, relatives and acquaintances who successfully navigate the young adult years. Expectations can also be influenced by various media reports. The various expectations of individuals in a society combine at the macro level to form norms about preferred young adult sequences.
