Micro theory Discussion(Japan):
Culture of Japan:
Japan as a country always had a reputation of being a nation with distinct culture and unique traditions. Their culture is renowned across the globe as it is a perfect mix of modernity and tradition which actually is composed of rites and traditions to honour the family. This is because Japan was always an isolated island nation, away from the intervention of the west, since the Tokugawa shogunate regime. It is seen that the Japanese culture is influenced from two major religions namely Buddhism and Shintoism. The later has been in practice in Japan for over two thousand years. To be honest due to influx of ideas from other countries into the traditions and culture, the present day feel in the country is modernised culture but is distinctly Japanese.
