MSU Faculty Emeriti Association Lecture: Rebuilding Northeastern Japan: . . .
(Conferences / Seminars / Lectures) . . . the Ongoing Tsunami and Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Crises, presented by Dr. Ethan Segal, MSU Department of History. The 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear power plant disasters claimed close to 20,000 lives and presented Japan with the greatest crises of its postwar history. Three years later, many refugees remain unable to find work, return to their homes, or restore their communities. Dr. Ethan Segal, Associate Professor of History at Michigan State University, will draw upon research and site visits to northeastern Japan to explain what happened in March 2011 and why the recovery efforts are so complicated and frustratingly slow.
