Beyond Fukushima: A Joint Agenda for US-Japanese Disaster Management
The catastrophes that struck Japan on March 11, 2011, created opportunities to improve the capabilities of both the United States and Japan to manage the consequences of future disasters as well as to strengthen the Japanese-American relationship. This paper describes those opportunities and offers a path to realizing them. The authors aim to illuminate how Japan and the United States can learn from each other’s experiences coping with past disasters and suggest how they might cooperate to respond more capably when unpredicted disasters strike in the future.
