be the Japanese. They can al­
ready start chuckling as they
watch us lap up silly books
about their country while they
gather information about the
West accurately and assiduously.
One indication of our inter­
est in Japan is the fiction we
read about the place. Potboil­
ers with Japanese titles, set
in the shadow of Mt. Fuji, ta­
ken over airport and drugstore
paperback racks all over
North America.
The most widely read is
James Clavell's Shogun. The
inaccuracies in Shogun —
even for a work of fiction —
run into the hundreds, if not
the thousands. The novel is
set in the 17th century, but
the name Mr. Clavell gives
heroine Mariko appeared for
the first time in the Japanese
language sometime around
the 1920's.
The Japanese expressions
in Shogun are jabberwocky.
For example, the part of the
Japanese house set aside for
the display of scrolls, vases,
flower arrangements, and the
like, is called the tokonoma.
Mr. Clavell renders it as takonama. But tako means oc­
topus and nama means raw.
Of course, in books of Sho­
gun's genre, raw fish and art
tend to get all mixed up any­
way.
By this point, the native Ja­
panese speaker is probably
rolling on the floor laughing.
At one spot, instead of taifu
(Japanese for hurricane), Mr.
Clavell gives us tai-fun, a
word that does not exist in
Japanese but which sounds
vaguely like typhoon, which
is an English term of Chinese
origin. One meaning of tai is
big, and another of fun is
manure, a combination that
might be appropriate to sum
up the whole book.
It is amazing how many
readers swear they learned a
lot about Japan from reading
Shogun. If that's true it is a
tragedy, because it indicated
a very high degree of popular
gullibility about Japan.
Gresham's Law also ap-

pears to apply to non-fiction
books about Japan. Theory Z,
offering questionable tales of
brilliant Japanese business
exploits, along with simple
answers on how to follow the
Japanese miracle into the
sunset, makes millions for its
author while scholarly vol­
umes with plenty of genuine
answers — like Ronald Dore's
books on Japanese society,
education, and industry — re­
main in university libraries.
What we have here goes
beyond jokes and fiction.
There is an enormous imba­
lance between the skills the
Japanese have shown in un­
derstanding North Ameri­
cans, and the ignorance
North Americans display to­
ward them. Japan has hun­
dreds of bureaucrats trained
in dealing with Europeans
and North Americans, but Japanese-speakers in Ottawa
and Washington are few and
far between.
The dangers of such gaps
are obvious: Americans in
Tokyo and occasionally heard
wondering if they are not at a
disadvantage in trade negoti­
ations with Japan because of
a lack of Japan experts in
their bureaucracy.
Australia is one country
that has shown a willingness
to spend money on taking Ja­
pan seriously. In any given
year, an estimated 20,000
Australians are learning Japa­
nese in school. In the past 10
yearsr between 40,000 and
50,000 Australians have taken
some sort to formal training
in Japanese. Some start their
language studies in primary
school.
Just about when Australia
begins its ambitious program
to introduce Japanese lan­
guage and culture programs
in a big way, Canadian univer­
sities have abolished all lan­
guage requirements. Australia
is a major competitor with
Canada in the sale of raw ma­
terials to Japan.
This would not appear to
be a time for much laughter.
It is a time for action or else
the joke could be on us.
