Through the analysis of textbooks, this paper reveals the structure of research topics on the sociology of work in postwar Japan. The analysis revealed the following points. (1) The number of textbooks in the sociology of work has decreased compared to sociology textbooks in other fields. (2) Until 1970, the structure of topics was centered on organizational theory; since the 1990s, this structure has become fragmented. These findings correlate the view of previous studies that the sociology of work in Japan has stagnated. In addition, this demonstrates the need for a “sociology of the sociology of work.”

<p>Historical research on labor and gender in Japan is still insufficient. This paper analyzes the notion of gender held by Muto Sanji, who was a prominent business manager in Japan's cotton-spinning industry before WW2. Because the expectations demanded of labor show up in managers' congratulatory messages, we use Muto's congratulatory messages for data. As a result of our analysis, Muto's notion of gender includes (1) a justification of employment using a market-oriented logic, (2) essentialism regarding gender roles in labor, and (3) the justification of a gender division of labor via a genderized family concept. These findings have been overlooked in previous research.</p>
