It attempts to answer questions such as: what happens when women are the financial providers and men are the paid seducers? How do they communicate when women want to be seduced but cannot say so? What is it like to be in a commodified form of romance? Takeyama investigates various aspects of the host clubs including the host club as workplace, the hosts themselves, the women who frequent host clubs, the club managers, and the ethics of host club deception. Ultimately, the book provides readers with an extraordinary look into the dynamics of seduction, and the broader dynamics of the contemporary Japanese political economy.|cPublisher's description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Love|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85078519 |xEconomic aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005484|zJapan|zTokyo.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79034998-781 650 0 Man-woman relationships|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh92001504|zJapan|zTokyo.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79034998-781 650 0 Sex industry|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85120657|zJapan|zTokyo.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79034998-781 650 0 Sexual ethics|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85120731|zJapan|zTokyo.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n79034998-781 650 0 Nightclubs|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2001000101|zJapan|zTokyo.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79034998-781 650 7 Love|xEconomic aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1002773 650 7 Love.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1002769 650 7 Man-woman relationships.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1007080 650 7 Sex industry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1114670 650 7 Sexual ethics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1114835 650 7 Nightclubs.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1037674 651 0 Tokyo (Japan)|xSocial life and customs|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh85135861|y21st century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012478 651 7 Japan|zTokyo.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204835 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aTakeyama, Akiko, 1970-|tStaged seduction |z9780804791243|w(DLC) 2015029298|w(OCoLC)915943351 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1160581|zOnline eBook.
