Modern Estimation of Yokkaichi Pollution and International Environmental Cooperation in North East Asia

我们的主要研究成果有以下三个方面。首先，我们对中国、韩国和俄罗斯远东地区的污染问题进行了实地调查，并与每位学者建立了交流的机会。结果表明，有必要在解决东北亚地区严重的环境问题与各区域经济发展之间进行一些政策的平衡，这有助于解决该地区面临的一些问题。其次，我们就这个项目举办了三次国际研讨会，并与来自中国、韩国、远东俄罗斯的学者和国内专家进行了热烈的讨论。在这些专题讨论会中，我们不仅成功地发现了东北亚环境合作的重要性，而且发现了制定跨学科和综合研究的可能性，尽管东亚各国遇到了一些经济差距和行政制度差异的问题。特别是我们重新评估了公民管理和合作的对应关系，以克服区域污染，如四日市哮喘。最后，我们提出了包括人文科学、未来学、环境教育和亚洲研究在内的“YOKKAICHI Studies”，它不局限于现有的学术领域。经过我们的努力，出版了两本书；“迈向环境宜人的生态城市——来自四日市空气污染的建议”，《创刊》，2004年；“四日市研究——未来的环境研究”，富百屋，2005年。“YOKKAICHI研究”在三重大学也被积极用作环境研究的工具。

Our main results of research are the following three aspects.At first, we carried out the fieldwork investigation concern pollution problems in China, Korea, and Far East Russia and established opportunities for an exchange of ideas with each scholar. The result showed that it was necessary to balance some policies to address serious environmental problems with development of each regional economy in North-East Asia Region, which help to settle some issues this area faced.Secondly, we held three international symposiums in term of this project and had an animated discussion with scholar from China, Korea and Far East Russia and domestic experts. In those symposiums, we succeeded in finding not only the significance of environmental cooperation in North-East Asia, but also possibility of the formulation of interdisciplinary and integrated studies though States in East Asia encounter some problems of economic disparities and the differences about administration systems. Especially we reevaluated correspondence in citizen administration and cooperation in order to conquer regional pollution such as Yokkaichi Asthma.Finally, we proposed "YOKKAICHI Studies" including, human science, futurology, environmental education and Asian study, which is never obsessed with existing academic area. As a result of our works, Two books were published ; "Toward Environmental Amenity Eco- City- Suggestion from YOKKAICHI Air Pollution", Chuouhouki, 2004 and "YOKKAICHI Studies- Environmental Study for the Future", Fubaisya, 2005. "YOKKAICHI Studies" is also made active use of as a tool of environmental study in Mie University.
