Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study focuses on the different kinds of social conflicts between local people/individuals and the communities/local governments arising in the process of disaster rebuilding. It seems that the cases of Hurricane Katrina and Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Accidents are so much different, but there are a few similarities between two cases. One of them is contradiction between community resilience and individual resilience. To understand the situation and political needs of evacuated poeple who live in Ibaraki, we did survey research in 2012 and 2014. We also studied the development of civil movements in low-recognized disaster affected areas in mega-disaster cases.
