This book presents an evaluation of the impacts of megathrust
earthquakes and tsunamis on regional economies and subsequent
reconstruction, as well as regional revitalization by the spatial
economic model and dynamic macro and regional computable general
equilibrium (CGE) models. The cases examined are the Great East
Japan Earthquake and the Indian Ocean Tsunami. The study constructs
three models of these megathrust earthquakes and the associated
tsunami. In the first model, the regional CGE model is proposed
with a database comprising the two-regional social accounting
matrix for 2005 between the region comprising four
disaster-affected prefectures of Japan and the non-disaster region.
For the recursive dynamic regional CGE model, the model that
expanded and improved the dynamic two-regional CGE model to reflect
the incomplete employment conditions and the aging society is used
to analyze the impacts of an earthquake and the construction of
industrial clusters. In the second model, the interregional
input-output model is proposed in order to analyze the impacts of
the earthquake and rapid population decline and construction of a
biogas electricity power plant. In the third model, a new economic
geography (NEG) model is proposed, consisting of the 47 prefectures
of Japan in order to investigate the impacts of the Great East
Japan and Nankai megathrust earthquakes and the associated tsunami
and to consider how they change the regional economies of Japan.
Using these three models, the impacts of megathrust earthquakes and
tsunamis on regional economies and reconstruction and on regional
revitalization are evaluated.
