Focusing first on responses to the triple disasters of March 2011, the book then puts the topic in a wider historical context by looking at responses to earlier disasters, both natural and man-made, including the great quakes of 1995 and 1923 and the atomic bombings of 1945. This wide-ranging “double structure” enables an in-depth understanding of the complexities of the issues involved that goes well beyond the clichés and the headlines.DisastersSocial aspectsJapanHistoryTohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, Japan, 2011Fukushima Nuclear Disaster, Japan, 2011TyphoonsJapanHistory21st centuryFloodsJapanHistory21st centuryAtomic bombJapanHistory20th centuryKanto Earthquake, Japan, 1923DisastersJapanReligious aspectsHistoryDisasters in literatureJapanese literatureHistory and criticismDisastersSocial aspectsHistory.Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, Japan, 2011.Fukushima Nuclear Disaster, Japan, 2011.TyphoonsHistoryFloodsHistoryAtomic bombHistoryKanto Earthquake, Japan, 1923.DisastersReligious aspectsHistory.Disasters in literature.Japanese literatureHistory and criticism.363.34/940952090512Starrs Roy1946-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787974403321When the tsunami came to shore3813356UNINA
