In order to generate economic growth amid the shrinking labor force, policy makers have recognized the importance of pushing women into the labor market. At the same time, the low birth rate has compelled them to pursue work-life balance policy as well as childcare policy. Recently, “womenomics” discourse has also penetrated into growth strategy, which justifi es positive action measures. Nevertheless, these seemingly working-women-friendly polices have not yielded concrete results. The article asks why numerous women-friendly policies are at best schizophrenic, if not contradictory with each other. More broadly, it investigates how gender inequality has persisted in Japan, identifying the position of women in Japanese welfare states and exploring the spread of statist family ideology held by the dominant Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). The blending of neoliberalism and statist family ideology, which I label “neoliberal motherhood,” accounts for Japan’s schizophrenic policy response. Although neoliberalism and motherhood might appear at odds with each other, the common thread that ties them together - the objectifi ed women - permits their strange marriage.}, pages = {53--68}, title = {新自由主義的母性 : 「女性の活躍」政策の矛盾}, volume = {18}, year = {2015} }
