  • Atsumi and Goltz: Fifteen Years of Disaster Volunteers 220
    Atsumi and Goltz: Fifteen Years of Disaster Volunteers International Journal of Mass Emergencies and Disasters March 2014, Vol. 32, No. 1, pp. 220–240. Fifteen Years of Disaster Volunteers in Japan: A Longitudinal Fieldwork Assessment of a Disaster Non-Profit Organization Tomohide Atsumi Graduate School of Human Sciences Osaka University and James D. Goltz California Emergency Management Agency and the California Institute of Technology Email: [email protected] Since the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji (Kobe) Earthquake, Japanese society has become accustomed to the presence of volunteers in the pre- and post-disaster environments, more specifically, in preparedness, response and recovery. The present study draws on the disaster research literature in exploring the social contexts in which groups of Kobe earthquake volunteers converged in January 1995 and formed organizations that continued to respond to national and international disasters during the 15 years that followed the 1995 earthquake. Based on the first author’s own longitudinal participant observation at a non-profit organization, the Nippon Volunteer Network Active in Disaster (NVNAD), the present study traces the development of the NVNAD over the last 15 years. The study’s basic conclusion is that, over the years, organized volunteerism in Japan has witnessed a struggle between the development of formal organizations emphasizing interagency cooperation and coordination of volunteers on one hand and the maintenance of a more affective social support-oriented approach with volunteers being physically and emotionally present to disaster survivors on the other. Keywords: Earthquake, Disaster volunteers 220 Atsumi and Goltz: Fifteen Years of Disaster Volunteers Introduction At 5:46 AM on Tuesday, January 17, 1995, the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (henceforth called the Kobe earthquake) struck the regions of Hanshin and Awaji Island in Japan, claiming more than 6,400 lives and injuring more than 15,000 in a densely populated urban coastal corridor whose central city is Kobe.
