is Professor Emerita of Social Anthropology at the University of Tokyo. Nakane’s work focuses on cross-cultural comparisons of social structures in Asia, notably Japan, India, and China. She is internationally known for her bestselling book, ''Japanese Society'', which has been translated into 13 languages. In this book, Nakane characterizes Japan as “a vertical society” where human relations are based on “place” (shared space) instead of “attribute” (qualification). Nakane graduated from Tsuda College in 1947 and then completed her graduate work specializing in China and Tibet at the University of Tokyo in 1952. In 1953-1957, she did fieldwork in India and studied in the School of Economics at the University of London. In 1959-1960, she was Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago. In 1960-1961, she was Lecturer at the University of London. In 1970, Nakane became the first female professor at the University of Tokyo, where she served as Director of the Institute of Oriental Culture in 1980-1982. She was Professor at Osaka University and the National Museum of Ethnology and Visiting Professor at Cornell University in 1975-1980. In 1995, she became the first and only female member of the Japan Academy. She is also an honorary member of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland. ==Books== *Nakane, C.
