Dear SSJ Forum Members:

Please be reminded of the FES/Rikkyo symposium on Fukushima and its various effects, here at Rikkyo University in Ikebukuro on Saturday the 26th of November.

Programme:

This conference takes a comparative look at the current context of Japan's energy policy. We seek to understand the political and economic forces that brought the energy policy into being, its impact, how it is being rethought, and its international effects. We also examine the likely future course of the energy economy.
