Abstract

<p>This paper draws Fukushima Reconstruction Knowledge and the Decommission Policy of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant from a view point of Science Policy Interfaces Study. Japanese Government policy to support universities’ research on Fukushima Reconstruction is defined Fukushima Reconstruction Knowledge as an academic, scientific, and expert knowledge. However, some of sociological studies are highly criticized this definition and they are emphasized on the role of local knowledge or non-expert knowledge on reconstruction process from natural disaster and nuclear disaster. The international trends of Science Policy Interfaces study provide us to the dynamic way to combine these two different approaches. Based upon Science Policy Interfaces study, this article is pointed out the importance of making socially robust knowledge and necessity of democratization of knowledge. Activities of the government’s subcommittee of treated radioactive wastewater management of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant are analyzed from these two viewpoints; socially robust knowledge and democratization of knowledge. The results of analysis on subcommittee activities show us the importance the expert knowledge network, especially the combination between technical expert knowledge and social expert knowledge, as well as necessity of participatory and deliberative democratic process.</p>
