Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies distinguished speaker series.
Note A lecture delivered in Japanese at Cornell University as part of the Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies distinguished speaker series. The lecture was translated for publication by Brett de Bary.
Summary In a speech delivered in Japanese at Cornell University, Naoto Kan describes the harrowing days after a cataclysmic earthquake and tsunami led to the meltdown of three reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. In vivid language, he tells how he struggled with the possibility that tens of millions of people would need to be evacuated. Cornell Global Perspectives is an imprint of Cornell University's Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies. The works examine critical global challenges, often from an interdisciplinary perspective, and are intended for a non-specialist audience. The Distinguished Speaker series presents edited transcripts of talks delivered at Cornell, both in the original language and in translation.
Language In English and Japanese.
