Audience: Students; Grades: 9-12; Subject Areas: Social Studies. (2017) In the middle of the 1980's, finance took over the main role in the Japanese economy, and the country headed toward an era of financial capitalism.

This episode spotlights what Japan's bubble economy really was, from interviews with more than 100 key figures of the bubble.
