Abstract

This study aims to elucidate the current conditions, challenges, and related factors surrounding public-private partnerships (PPPs) in reconstruction urban development projects in areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, including regions impacted by the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Furthermore, the research seeks to offer policy recommendations for enhancing the implementation of PPPs in future reconstruction efforts. To achieve these objectives, data were collected through questionnaires administered to local governments. The analysis involved a comparative assessment of urban development projects with and without reconstruction components, as well as cross-regional comparisons. As a result, it was found that regional differences were larger than the differences between reconstruction projects and non-reconstruction projects, and that PPPs were more difficult to consider and implement in Fukushima than in Miyagi and Iwate, and that the challenges were greater in Fukushima than in Miyagi and Iwate.
