  • The Japanese Consolidation Movement: Changing Notions of Territoriality in Coastal Japan1
    IIFET 2004 Japan Proceedings THE JAPANESE CONSOLIDATION MOVEMENT: CHANGING NOTIONS OF TERRITORIALITY IN COASTAL JAPAN1 Alyne Elizabeth Delaney, Institute for Fisheries Management and Coastal Community Development, [email protected] ABSTRACT The Japanese system of local management has been heralded as a successful system for managing coastal resources. Despite such general success, however, fishing cooperatives and their respective members currently face internal and external pressures from over-fishing, pollution, and life in an industria lized society. Further, the Japanese government has pushed for the consolidation of management groups in society - including Fishing Cooperative Associations (FCAs). This article examines the effects of the consolidation (gappei) movement on the structure of Japanese fishing cooperative associations and the lives of cooperative members, especially in regards to members' changing notions of territoriality. One case study is presented from Northeastern Japan where environmental and societal difficulties have pushed FCA members to informally alter their management practices. FCA members in Shichigahama, in central Miyagi Prefecture, consolidated local FCAs in 1999, have as of yet refused to officially allow 'outsiders' direct access to individual fishing territories. The reasons for the refusal of Shichigahama fishers to officially alter territories and the issues surrounding their view will be presented. Despite pressure from the central government, consolidation is not an easy path; nor is the result necessarily predictable, as the Shichigahama case shows. The paper concludes with the reminder that notions of territoriality change as local conditions change. Keywords: Japan; coastal fisheries; consolidation/amalgamation; territoriality; case studies INTRODUCTION In Japan, contemporary Fishing Cooperative Associations (FCAs) are extensions of traditional village institutions (Cordell 1989; Ruddle and Akimichi 1984; Ruddle 1987) and are supported by the legal system.

  • Reconstruction and Development Solutions in Higashimatsushima, an Area That Was Greatly Damaged by the Earthquake
    Job reference Reconstruction and development solutions in Higashimatsushima, an area that was greatly damaged by the earthquake. Miyagi, Japan Ten years since the Great East Japan Earthquake. Town reconstruction development solutions in Higashi-Matsushima, Miyagi Prefecture, an area that was greatly damaged by the earthquake. The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred on March 11, 2011. March 2021 will mark the 10th anniversary of the earthquake. During those ten years, the disaster areas have steadily recovered. As a Group, Panasonic is also working to help reconstruct the Tohoku region, and we offer our solutions in the belief that it is our mission to fulfill the social responsibilities through our support. As an example of that, we would like to introduce Panasonic's earthquake disaster prevention solution initiatives in Higashi-Matsushima, Miyagi Prefecture, an area that was greatly damaged and claimed many victims from the earthquake. 2021.2 Job reference A monitoring system that is strong in emergencies to prevent tsunami disasters. Higashi-Matsushima was heavily damaged by the tsunami during the Great East Japan Earthquake, and approximately 60% of the city was flooded. In the reconstruction plan, a guideline to formulate a disaster prevention independent city was raised, and various efforts have been made for that purpose. As part of that, the Higashi-Matsushima coastal tsunami monitoring system advance model project was implemented. This equipment operates a wireless network with a solar power generation system and storage batteries even during emergencies when commercial power or wired information networks are not available. One of the reasons of the heavy damage suffered by Higashi-Matsushima due to the tsunami was the breakdown of the disaster prevention radio and warning systems due to power outages.
