Confronting the fear of radiation and uncertainty

Many local governments in Japan have started to measure radiation on a regular basis in response to anxiety expressed by residents. Employees of firms from abroad are also receiving information, from their employers. A number of such persons left Japan when the situation at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant spun out of control. They have, to a great extent, returned. Our report considers differences in the ways Japan and the United States approach crisis control, and examines a survey on the subject conducted by the American Chamber of Commerce.
