The triple disaster that struck Japan in March 2011 began with the
most powerful earthquake known to have hit Japan and led to tsunami
up to 40 meters in height that devastated a wide area and caused
thousands of deaths. The ensuing accident at the Fukushima-Daiichi
nuclear power plant was Japan's worst and only second to Chernobyl
in its severity. But has this triple disaster also changed Japan?
Has it led to a transformation of the country, a shift in how Japan
functions? This book, with fresh perspectives on extraordinary
events written by diplomats and policy experts at European
embassies to Japan, explores subsequent shifts in Japanese politics
and policy-making to see if profound changes have occurred or if
instead these are limited. The book addresses those policy areas
most likely to be affected by the tragedy - politics, economics,
energy, climate, agriculture and food safety - describes how the
sector has been affected and considers what the implications are
for the future.
