摘要2001年在日本发现的首例疯牛病引发了食品安全监管框架的深远变化。本文重点介绍了自第一头疯牛病以来的三个主要机构发展，即食品安全委员会（2003年），Shokuiku或食品教育计划（2005年）和消费者事务厅（2009年）。通过对自我责任的概念、科学的政治化作用以及日本的“安心安心”（anzen anshin）修辞的关注，本研究分析了重建消费者信任的政治努力。监管变化逐渐将风险分析方法引入日本的食品安全治理，将消费者教育和消费者保护要素相结合。改革的重点是教育消费者新的角色和责任，将食品风险的责任转移到个人身上，从而越来越强烈地依赖于模糊的“安心”概念。然而，我认为，食品安全监督的独立性、责任性和分散性等问题必须不断得到解决，而不是将其隐藏在安善安心的花言巧语和呼吁消费者自我负责的背后。
ABSTRACT The discovery of the first BSE case in Japan in 2001 triggered far-reaching changes in the regulatory framework of food safety. This article focuses on three major institutional developments since that first mad cow, namely the establishment of the Food Safety Commission (2003), the Shokuiku or Food Education program (2005), and the Consumer Affairs Agency (2009). Through a focus on the concept of self-responsibility, the politicized role of science, and the Japanese rhetoric of anzen anshin (safety–peace of mind), this study analyses the political efforts in reinstalling consumer trust. Regulatory changes gradually initiated a risk analysis approach into Japan’s food safety governance, combining consumer education and consumer protection essentials. Focusing on educating the consumer about new roles and responsibilities, the reforms shift the accountability for food risk to the individual, thereby strongly and increasingly relying on the ambiguous concept of anzen anshin. However, I argue that issues such as independence, accountability, and fragmentation in food safety monitoring must be continuously addressed instead of hiding them behind a rhetoric of anzen anshin and calling upon the consumer’s self-responsibility.
