DESCRIPTION:In Japan almost 80% of all university students attend private 
 institutions. According to some estimates\, up to 40% of these institution
 s are family businesses in the sense that members of a single family have 
 substantive ownership or control over their operation. This paper examines
  how such universities in Japan have negotiated a period of major demograp
 hic decline since the 1990s: their experiments in restructuring and reform
 \, the diverse experiences of those who worked and studied within them and
 \, above all\, their unexpected resilience. It argues that this resilience
  derives from a number of ‘inbuilt’ strengths of family business which
  are often overlooked in conventional descriptions of higher education. \n
