Abstract
Environmental Dispute Coordination in the Teshima Island Industrial Waste Case was concluded between the appellants and Kagawa prefecture on June 6, 2000.
This dispute originated from 1975, caused a long time involvement and endurance upon the life of Teshima-islanders. However their governance and involvement toward this man-made calamity should continue even after the waste problems were completely removed and resolved.
We made a historical database covering from 1975 to 2002 using original data sources of the islanders, concerning historical events and series, management and governance activities and manpower involvements.
In this thesis, we show the comprehensive historical calendar of the quality events and series, and also quantitative events, which affected the islander's management and governance.
For the events and series analysis we use Input-Throughput-Output Analysis by R. Deacon, where one process affects the next one by negative or positive feedback.
We also show the results of the aggregated manpower analysis and their contents, which can easily make us understand the islander's physical endurance level and socially heavy costs. This thesis shows us the process and the quantity and quality levels of the democratic governavility, and also endogenous empowerment development with external high professional supports.
