Managing disaster risks with low probability and high consequences is one of the big challenges for the Japanese disaster management policy. In this paper, a questionnaire survey on disaster management policy for sustainable disaster management was conducted from the perspective of intergenerational justice. The conclusions of this analysis are as follows. The elderly tend to pass the burden of such a large disaster reduction projects on the future generations. Those who have their descendants are not willing to do it.These fact imply that most of the Japanese citizens's preference on disaster management policy is selfish, not necessarily regarding the future generations into considerations.
