As the nation struggled to recover from a record breaking magnitude nine earthquake and a tsunami that was as high as 38 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. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking an understanding of the events of March 2011 in Japan and the wider consequences for the future of the country and the rest of the world."--Publisher's description.8 aAAL 0aTohoku earthquake and tsunami, Japan, 2011.960918 0aNuclear power plantsxAccidentszJapanzFukushima-ken.960919 0aDisaster reliefzJapan.9609201 aKingston, Jeff,d1957-960921 0aNissan Institute/Routledge Japanese studies series.9608831 aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks  2ddccBK  c47995d47995  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULd2026-05-19eDonated by Embassy of Japan in Bangladesh, Read Japan Project 2025, The Tokyo Foundation, supported by The Nippon Foundation.l0o952.0512 NATp3010045807r2026-05-19t1w2026-05-19yBK
