introduction of my essay "Where to for the young generation of Japan?"

At present the younger generation in Japan faces the negative impact of a range of social problems and issues that can be directly attributed to restructuring of Japanese economic policy under former Prime Minister Koizumi, wherein Japan moved from a big government to a little government approach to the economy. In Japan it is said that today is no longer the age of mass production and consumption but the age of searching after immaterial richness. In other words, spiritual richness is still more important than material richness. Then, why do say that now? In my opinion, there are two main reasons, first limitation of Maslow theory, (I referred a Maslow theory in detail after chapter) and I mean a desire which can be fulfilled by material is already achieved. Second the contents of seiiki naki kouzou kaikaku (social restructuring without sanctuary) operated by former prime minister koizumi jyunichiro were in directly speaking, big government to little government policy, and that meant at the same time, increasing a presence of self-charge (jiko sekinin). Then, I research social circumstances surrounding Japanese youth of today as can be seen through these social problems they face and their view of their situation.
