Extract

This essay is designed as a short introduction to Japanese studies in European labor history. As a bibliography it does not claim to be exhaustive. A few significant titles had to be excluded when there were too many on a topic to cite them all. Some others have been included because of their uniqueness, even when they were of lower quality. Older writings are only mentioned occasionally.
