Outline of Final Research Achievements |
At the end of March 2017, after the seventh year of the earthquake disaster, governmental order for evacuation was mostly terminated except for Nagadoro where radiation levels are still high. The radiation level in the living zone of Iitate village has decreased to less than 0.3 μSv/hr. The form of life style of villagers is varied, after the evacuation order for them is terminated. Villagers trying to return home in Iitate immediately will be less than 20%. Most of them are elderly people with little risk of radiation damage, and it is difficult to regenerate the community. As seen in the Nanohana project (hybrid plant of radiation pollution and nature) in radiation contaminated environments in Fukushima, the driving force of reconstruction can be found even in the hybrid structure with pollution, so in order to fit Latour's scientific theory into a low-level radioactive environment, we should rethink the real nature and the progress of science in his theory.
