长期以来，高度的文化和种族同质性一直与日本联系在一起，与其政治话语和战后日本学术词汇联系在一起。这本书考察了潜在的假设。作者分析了日本的种族话语及其在过去一个世纪中的表达和重新表达，背景是来自殖民边缘的劳动力迁移。他解构了日本种族的神话。迈克尔·韦纳探讨了殖民移民的第二个主要主题：殖民移民的原因和后果。分析不只是确定推动因素，而是关注决定移民目的地的更具活力的拉动因素。同样，作者没有关注移民，而是考察了韩国移民填补的对低成本临时工的结构性需求。
A high degree of cultural and racial homogeneity has long been associated with Japan, with its political discourse and with the lexicon of post-war Japanese scholarship. This book examines underlying assumptions. The author provides an analysis of racial discourse in Japan, its articulation and re-articulation over the past century, against the background of labour migration from the colonial periphery. He deconstructs the myth of a Japanese race'. Michael Weiner pursues a second major theme of colonial migration; its causes and consequences. Rather than merely identifying the push factors', the analysis focuses on the more dynamic pull factors' that determined immigrant destinations. Similarly, rather than focusing upon the immigrant, the author examines the structural need for low-cost temporary labour that was filled by Korean immigrants.
