Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Government of Japan estimated the damages of the East Japan Great Earthquake as 16.9 trillion yen. The estimated amount, however, takes account of only the cost of reconstruction of physical damages. The indirect economic damages, such as decrease in production and/or labor compensation, are completely ignored in the estimation. This paper estimates the indirect economic damages of both backward linkage and forward linkage caused by decrease in consumer demand and damages in production facilities. The W. Isard type of inter-regional input-output analysis is employed for this purpose. Major findings are as follows: 1) The indirect economic damages were estimated as 6.9 trillion yen and 40% of the direct impact. 2) The forward linkage economic damage of 3.5 trillion yen is 47% larger than those of backward linkage damage caused by the destruction of industries.
