| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study analyzes several examples of disaster support in Japan since the 20th century. The results indicate that public donations are expanding in modern Japanese society. During the first half of the 20th century, comfort bags for soldiers were diverted as disaster support. After the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011, businesses began providing handmade goods made by earthquake victims in disaster areas. These businesses combined with various forms of outside support including human resources, materials, and money. I clarified the process and structure of support efforts. Finally, novel forms of donations associated with disaster relief are beginning to appear, such as a new initiative to give the money normally spent on Valentine’s Day each year as a donation to socially vulnerable people.
