Variously translated as customs, morals, and daily life, the Japanese term fuzoku was prominent in legal and popular discourse of the Tokugawa era (1600 - 1868). This title explores the intense cultural struggle among government officials, journalists, historians, and activists to define and preserve fuzoku as Japan modernized after 1868.
