Not meant to be morbid, these anthropology short articles document changing social life.

Colleague Yohko Tsuji has published an article on the Anthropology-News blog about cultural and social developments in the care of the dead in Japan (cemetery decisions), https://www.anthropology-news.org/index.php/2020/08/13/changing-mortuary-practices-in-japan/

This nicely complements her 2014 article on the blog for Society for East Asia Anthropology concerning funeral practices. http://seaa.americananthro.org/2014/04/evolving-funerals-in-japan/
