Japan's Lost Decades

from The Continuum

When Japan’s economic miracle came crashing down in the early 1990s, the world watched in disbelief. What followed wasn’t a brief recession — it was a generation-long reckoning. Japan’s Lost Decades explores how a burst bubble became a national identity crisis — reshaping politics, society, and global economics. From the euphoria of the late 1980s boom to the quiet endurance of a nation learning to live without growth, this is the story of ambition, paralysis, and resilience.Part of the Political Besties Network (www.politicalbesties.com)#History #Japan #currentevents #economics This is a public episode.
