Japanese economy
Yen-based economic system
The Japanese economy refers to the economic system and output of Japan, historically the world's second-largest economy until surpassed by China in 2010.
It is characterized by advanced manufacturing, particularly automobiles and electronics, and a distinctive corporate culture emphasizing lifetime employment and close business-government coordination.
The term often appears in discussions of Japan's post-war "economic miracle," its prolonged stagnation following the 1990s asset bubble collapse, and ongoing challenges with deflation and an aging workforce.
