Copies of Newsweek were examined for three consecutive years, from 1982 to 1984,and for a further period of three years from 1992 to 1994. There was a total of 153.8 pages devoted to articles on Japan in the former years, and 284.9 pages in the latter period, an increase of 131.1 pages or 85.2% over the first three year period. The average number of pages for each article was 0.55 and 1.1 pages respectively. The dramatic increase in the total number of pages and in the average length of each article shows much more attention is being paid to Japan than ten years earlier. In the former period, the greatest number of articles was related to the economy. Such articles can be divided into a variety of fields among which 'trade with the U.S.' is of greatest concern, with the Japanese production of automobiles ranking second. Another topic of great interest was changes in the Japanese economy. In the more recent period, the greatest concern has been politics, where dramatic changes in the Japanese political scene have attracted the attention of the world. The second largest topic related to politics was relations with Korea and China, and a further concern has been political scandals. Thus, there is clear evidence the Japanese economy is not always the center of attention in Newsweek, though some critics have claimed this is the case. When Japanese politics are unstable, raising concern among people all over the world, politics can attract the greatest attention.
