James Fulcher

James Fulcher is a sociologist whose research focuses on the comparative study of societal development.

His work encompasses the evolution of labor relations in Britain and Sweden, Japan's rise as a global power, and the broader development of capitalism.

Fulcher has examined capitalism's stages, globalization, and institutional forms across different societies.

His interest in Japanese society stems from its unique trajectory in avoiding colonial domination and becoming an economic superpower.

Fulcher's academic contributions extend to co-authoring multiple editions of the Oxford Sociology textbook with John Scott, demonstrating his commitment to education in the field.
