Abstract:

The decision making of the China’s post-disaster reconstruction planning featured by a “government-oriented, top-down” hierarchy, which allows for the coordination of resources and concentration of efforts to efficiently advance reconstruction work. But researches proposed that the mechanism is prone to contradiction between a strong “top-down” governmental enforcement and realization of the “bottom-up” community’s decision-making space. This paper chooses Yuriage district in Natori City and Tamauranishi district in Iwanuma City  after the Great East Japan Earthquake as typical cases, representing “the correction after the failure of a ‘top-down’ ideal planning scheme” and “the smooth progress of a planning scheme based on ‘bottom-up’ community consent” respectively. It examines the different planning measurements of acquiring community consent, planning schemes, implementation progress and evaluation, with a view to providing concrete methodological suggestions for balancing government facilitation and community consensus in post-disaster reconstruction planning in China.
