The March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan plunged the country
into a state of crisis. As the nation struggled to recover from a
record breaking magnitude 9 earthquake and a tsunami that was as
high as thirty-eight meters in some places, news trickled out that
Fukushima had experienced meltdowns in three reactors. These tragic
catastrophes claimed some 20,000 lives, initially displacing some
500,000 people and overwhelming Japan's formidable disaster
preparedness. This book brings together the analysis and insights
of a group of distinguished experts on Japan to examine what
happened, how various institutions and actors responded and what
lessons can be drawn from Japan's disaster. The contributors, many
of whom experienced the disaster first hand, assess the
wide-ranging repercussions of this catastrophe and how it is
already reshaping Japanese culture, politics, energy policy, and
urban planning.
