Japan in the passing lane : an insider's account of life in a Japanese auto factory
"Kamata, Satoshi"
Japan in the passing lane : an insider's account of life in a Japanese auto factory - London Allen & Unwin 1982 - 211p.
Since long before Chaplin depicted it all in Modern Times the large factory assembly line, particularly the automobile assembly line, has been a symbol of the very particular form of degradation which an advanced, relatively affluent, mechanized society imposes on some of its members. There are numerous studies of such work from the outside, but rather fewer articulate subjective accounts by those who have actually lived the assembly-line life as ordinary workers or at least as workers not privileged by more than their own ability to satnd apart, reflect, and write as well as simply work.
