Requests:  0 Summary:  "Every Human Intention presents post-Fukushima Japan in three illustrative parts, areas where the consequences of national policy are felt: immigration, population decline, and the post-Fukushima nuclear industry. Dreux Richard follows members of Japan's immigrant Nigerian community affected by Japan's exclusionary and flawed visa system. He explores the northernmost town in Japan, which is rapidly depopulating as its residents age and die. And he takes us into the offices of nuclear regulatory officials who cannot agree on the parameters of their own geographical fault line review, which will determine whether the nation's riskiest reactors will restart. Through Richard's perceptive and probing reporting, he establishes himself as an authority on the subject matter, but he remains aware of his status as an outsider and "translator," acting as the readers' expatriate guide. The personal elements of his subjects' stories and his own perspective afford us an understanding of today's Japan that goes far beyond mere politics, truisms, and sensational arguments"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.89669 Ri Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.89669 Ri Checked In Add Copy to MyList
