I have watched Japanese television that was made in the 1980's and that which was made recently: That from the 80's is far more intelligent and insightful than that made today, especially that show where they covered a naked man in chicken feed and released starving chickens on him. It reminds me a lot of Television here in north America, which has degenerated from lessons in life experience in the 80's to Jerry Springer today.

I don't see many changes in the last 30 years, except for the remarkable technological and electronical developments (as in the case of any other country). But technological advancement doesn't affect people's mind much.
Politics, economy and the society haven't changed much. In other words, Japan has very stable foundation that enables them to flexibility react to the world situation for its own national interest. Japan has never experienced a national crisis that would have changed their society drastically.
Japan has been very stable country politically, economically, socially and culturally for the last 30 years (1977-2007).
Great changes took place in the 1940's, 1950's and the 1960's, though. By early 1970's, Japan's post-war foundation had been firmly established.
