Abstract	While Japan is often portrayed as either a stagnant economic power or a futuristic technological hub, the reality is far more nuanced. In this context, this chapter addresses the multifaceted narrative surrounding the book. This introduction highlights the complexities of Japan's position in the global landscape, setting the stage for the following chapters that explore Japanese smart cities and energy transition. Through a comprehensive analysis of economic, social, policy, and environmental challenges, the book seeks to provide a balanced perspective on Japan's past, present, and future. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Maciej M.
