The Ichiro effect : typescript, 2009 : the impact of America and Major League Baseball on professional baseball in Japan / Gordon Nye Sleeper. 2009.

"This paper places baseball in a historical context by detailing both the geopolitical relationship between Japan and the United States and by defining important cultural norms that justify each league's actions. An understanding of the current relationship between the leagues, coupled with the realities of the influx of Japanese talent in the Major Leagues, can lead to predictions about the future of baseball in Japan."--p. 2-3.
