"In this study of six criminal cohorts incarcerated by the Japanese in greater numbers over the last several decades, Elmer H. Johnson uncovers a more recent, and subtle, reverse trend: incarceration rates of four of the cohorts are actually declining, which suggests that the traditional reluctance of Japanese corrections officials to use imprisonment for social control is re-asserting itself."
