A companion-piece to Program No. 3, this program introduces two Japanese city families and explores their lives and ideas. A modern and very Westernized “new” family and a traditional “old” family show the contrasts of today’s Japan within the cities themselves. City life breeds a more rapid form of change than does life in the country. Industrialization, the increasing world markets for goods, greater communication with other parts of the world, and increasing exposure to other ways of life – all of these have worked to Westernize the city dweller. This program was shot for the series in Tokyo, and features comments by Professor Ronald Dore of the London School of Economics, who was in Tokyo at the time the program filmed. Professor Robert Ward appears as host.

Immediately following Pearl Harbor, one of the critical problems facing the United States was what to do with the 100,000 people of Japanese descent living up and down the Pacific Coast. The immediate step was to remove all Japanese from critical areas around air fields, harbors, and industrial plants, to forestall sabotage and espionage. This mass migration accomplished by the Army working with the War Relocation Authority is shown in the film--from the first registration through the movement to temporary quarters established in race tracks and fair grounds to the final migration to settlements in Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming.
