Abstract:
Japan’s regions have been affected by an aging population and structural weaknesses. Now, young people seem to be moving back to the country and solving these problems. Politics and the media paint an idyllic picture: in rural Japan, a fulfilled, self-actualized life awaits surrounded by nature. Ludgera Lewerich critically investigates the public discourse surrounding the phenomenon of urban-rural migration and young people’s perspectives
