The Main Determinants of the Japanese State-of-the-Art Way of Life

In this paper, the authors make an attempt to formulate an approach to the study of the current lifestyle of the Japanese society through understanding the dynamic mechanisms of culture that determine normality for society and the limits of its changes. Cultural dominants will be identified that act as the basis for changes in Japanese society as such without losing its identity. The boundaries and mechanisms of these changes, the critical limits that outline the subjectivity of Japanese culture in the definitions of the way of life of Japanese society, are determined. As a 15result, the main determinants of the Japanese way of life, which form the basis of its development and changes in the context of the current conditions of existence of the Japanese society, will be identified.
