Abstract
The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred on 11 March 2011. It has caused significant yet complex damages since then. Not only the direct damage caused by the earthquake itself and Tsunami followed by it but also lack of power due to Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster and decline in domestic demand on account of harmful rumors and self-imposed restriction have come together to form this damage. This paper simulates the resilience of Tourism to natural disasters from the point of view of local employment recovery by applying Ghosh inverse matrix to Input Output Table in Fukushima. In this analysis in particular, we simulate the recovery from the damaged supply chains in each industry. As a result, although it varies a little, the other industry's employment recovery effectiveness followed by Tourism's preceded recovery is 2.10 persons per 100 million yen (employment increase index per economy recovery) which is higher than the average of all the industries of 1.24 persons per 100 million yen.
