震災復興計画試論-都市環境創造と社会ミティゲーション-

Abstract

In order to get good recovery after urban disasters such as the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake disaster, it is necessary to enlarge the concept of mitigation in disaster management. In this paper, social mitigation was defined as humane technology which includes combination of ecological infrastracture and amenity infrastructure. The former focuses on cut-off of energy, circulation utility of water and other natural resources, reduction of public nuisance and recovery of green forest zone in urban environment. The latter has environmental efforts such as safety and security, convenient access for public sectors, economics, culture and information. Improvement recovery means not only enforcement of structural infrastructure such as lifeline systems and buildings but also natural and social environment recovery. The concept of "Nature has a will" was proposed as a philosophy of creation of urban environment.
