 note = {It has been argued that Japanese legal and policy terms hardly have responded to the growing family complexity in domestic society, as a consequence of divorce, remarriage and stepfamilies. This essay thus discusses the ways in which so-called "compressed modernity" has persistently exerted a normative effect on the concept of family in both legal and institutional discourses. Japan is no exception to the rapid worldwide transformation of domestic society and population characteristics. This is evident in the emerging issue of stepfamilies for instance, including more recently cross-national stepfamilies, which has led to changing perceptions of the family, with an emphasis on their growing diversity and unity. This essay raises a question of institutionalized familism in Japan and argues theoretical remarks on the reconstruction of the family in contemporary Asia within the global context.},
