| Research Abstract |
The purpose of our study was to examine the effect of citizen participation on social acceptance of environment management plan in EU and Japan.
We conducted analyses on two surveys on social acceptance of environment management plan we conducted in Lengerich and other cities, Germany. The results of theses surveys revealed that the citizens evaluated the plan not only from the aspect of expected outcomes of the plan, but also from the aspect of perceived fairness of the participatory procedure. The results of surveys also indicated that the citizen participation projects enhanced not only citizens' trust for their authorities, but also the participants' empowerment.
We also conducted analyses on the surveys in Kuwana and Tajimi, Japan in order to compare the determinants of social acceptance of the environment management plan with citizen participation between Germany and Japan. The results of surveys revealed that main determinant of the social acceptance was procedural fairness of citizen participation, same factor as the result of German surveys.
Furthermore, we conducted comparative scenario-based experiments between the Netherland and Japan in order to examine the effects of voice and belief similarity on social acceptance of the plan and trust for the authority and participants of citizen participatory project to make the plan. The results indicated that voice and belief similarity had positive impacts on social acceptance through trust for authority and participants.
