This strategic thinking lays the foundation for this study, which examines interaction between civilian and military actors during disaster response with the aim to determine if there is a new or better way for actors to come together in times of need. Innovation in this field is critical heading into the future because relationships between civilian and military actors have historically formed through necessity rather than an institutionalised approach. Using an inductive methodology, this study draws on Australia's responses to natural disasters in the Philippines, Vanuatu and Fiji to examine how the Australian Defence Force (ADF) interacts with a broad range of civilian actors during disaster preparedness and response, two phases within a disaster management cycle.

  • Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Update Friday, April 1, 2011 Overview
    Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Update Friday, April 1, 2011 Note: New content has been inserted in red, italicized, bold font. Overview A powerful 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit Japan on March 11 at 1446 local time (0546 GMT), unleashing massive tsunami waves that crashed into Japan’s northeastern coast of Honshu, the largest and main island of Japan, resulting in widespread damage and destruction. According to the Government of Japan (GoJ), as of Friday (April 1), 11,734 people are confirmed dead and 16,375 people are reported to be missing. (Kyodo, Reuters, April 1) There are no new figures for the number of injured, but the UN reported last week that 2,766 people 1 were injured. Casualty numbers are likely to increase as emergency teams continue to reach and assess affected areas. The earthquake sparked widespread tsunami warnings across the Pacific. According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the shallow quake struck at a depth of six miles (10 km) (20 km deep according to Japan’s Meteorological Agency), around 80 miles (125 km) off the eastern coast of Japan, and 240 miles (380 km) northeast of Tokyo. Key Concerns: • There are more than 166,000 evacuees. • UN says priority needs remain: fuel, prefabricated housing, clothing and medicine. Request for international assistance Japan has asked for international help to deal with the disaster and has so far received offers of assistance from 134 countries and 33 international organizations. It has accepted relief items from 24 countries to date. According to OCHA, the GoJ says the need for further international assistance is limited and any support should be in accordance with the GoJ’s criteria.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION The Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan on 11 March 2011 (3.11) was an event of unforeseen proportions. A magnitude 9.0 earthquake was followed by 9.3-metre-high tsunami waves over the coast of north- eastern Japan, which claimed the lives of nearly 20,000 people and obliterated communities. The earthquake began at 2.46 pm, which meant that most children were at school and were guided to higher ground in anticipation of a tsunami. Over 240 children were orphaned as a result. Numerous medical and administrative institutions were destroyed when they were most needed and 160,000 people were forced to move to temporary shelters.1 However, the disaster did not end there—nearly 700 aftershocks of magnitude 5 or greater were recorded within a year of 3.11 (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, 2012). Further, 3.11 developed into a triple disaster, with the subsequent meltdown of three nuclear reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant, which caused 344,000 people to evacuate from the affected areas (Reconstruction Agency, 2012). Many continue to suffer, especially from the effects of the nuclear disaster, while the rest of the nation attempts to move on. There is no doubt that 3.11 has left a permanent scar on the lives of many—even if they did not lose their friends and loved ones, they lost their livelihood, their homes and their lifestyles. In the foreign media, perhaps the most memorable images from the disaster were Japanese people calmly lining up to receive supplies or waiting for the public transport system to resume without any outward display of stress or anguish, despite the shock of the disaster.

  • Japan-Australia Security Relations and the Rise of China: Pursuing the “Bilateral-Plus” Approaches1
    UNISCI Discussion Papers, Nº 32 (Mayo / May 2013) ISSN 1696-2206 JAPAN-AUSTRALIA SECURITY RELATIONS AND THE RISE OF CHINA: PURSUING THE “BILATERAL-PLUS” APPROACHES1 Yusuke Ishihara2 The National Institute for Defense Studies (NIDS), Japan Abstract: Japan-Australia security relations have been visibly growing for the past six years since the landmark Joint Declaration on Security Cooperation was announced in March 2007. Although many scholars point out that the rise of China is a key driving force for this emerging security partnership, there is no updated, comprehensive and detailed study which focuses on the question of how and why Japan-Australia cooperation especially since 2007 can be related to their joint approaches to China. In answering this question this paper makes the case that Japan-Australia joint approaches towards China should be understood in a broader perspective beyond the bilateral context if one aspires to understand the nature of their security relations. Such broader perspectives can be termed as “bilateral-plus” approaches in which Japan and Australia seek to embed their bilateral cooperation into a wider formula of their trilateral cooperation with the U.S., and their regional multilateral efforts. Keywords: Japan, Australia, Rise of China, Bilateral-Plus, Hedge, Trilateral Cooperation. Resumen: Las relaciones de seguridad Japón-Australia han ido profundizándose ostensiblemente en los últimos seis años desde el hito de la Declaración Conjunta sobre Cooperación en Seguridad anunciada en marzo del 2007. Aunque numerosos académicos apuntan al hecho de que es el ascenso de China el principal factor aglutinante en la incipiente asociación, no existen estudios detallados, integrales y actualizados, sobre cómo y porqué la cooperación Japón-Australia, especialmente desde el 2007, ha de relacionarse con sus aproximaciones comunes a China.
