PresentationThis workhop organised by the CERIC and supported by the French National Center of Scientific Research &#8220;CNRS&#8221; (Program &#8220;NEEDS&#8221;: Nuclear, Energy, Environment, Waste, Society ) will take place on November 8th, 2012 at the Faculty of Law and Political Science of Aix-en-Provence.&#160;&#160;&#160;It aims at understanding the political, social and especially legal consequences related to the Fukushima nuclear accident. Its goal consists in developing a global vision of these consequences by comparing how risk is being perceived both in Japan and in France at the occasion of this collaboration between French and Japanese researchers. What are the legal&#160; and social policies as regards nuclear power&#160; in France and in Japan ? Do both populations perceive differently the related risks?&#160; Does the&#160; Fukushima nuclear accident change mentalities ? What are the legal consequences of this accident and will they have any impact on international law and French law ? What could have been the legal consequences of such a drama in France ? Trying to answer these questions will enable us to better identify the current perception of nuclear risk both in France and in Japan. At this occasion, the Faculty of Law and Political Science will welcome four Japanese professors specialized in the field of environmental law who will explain how Japanese law deals with the Fukushima drama. For this purpose the morning&#160; session will be dedicated to the question of the fate of victims and the afternoon session to the question of the future of nuclear energy.ProgramFree entrance - compulsory registration&#160;Before&#160;5 November 2012,&#160;care of&#160; Martine Perron&#160;(martine.perron@univ-amu.fr) or by&#160;fax : +33 (o)4.86.91.42.50 &#160;Opening 9:30/10:00Mathilde Boutonnet (Assistant Professor, Environmental Law Chair of the CNRS,&#160;Aix-Marseille University, CERIC)Corinne Lepage (Former Minister of the Environment, Member of the European Parliament)&#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;&#160;After-Fukushima, the fate of victimsI &#8211; ResponsabilitiesChair Christian Huglo, Attorney at Law, Paris Bar AssociationFukushima Accident and responsability of the State and of the operator of the nuclear plant (Professor Takehisa Awaji, University of Waseda, Professor Emeritus of the University of Rikkyo, doctor honoris causa of the University of Paris 12, Lawyer)A French point of view in the event of a similar case in France (Professor Marie Lamoureux, University of sud/Toulon Var)Coffee Break, 10:45/11:05II &#8211; CompensationChair Vanessa Richard, CNRS Researcher, CERICNuclear damage caused by the Fukushima accident, clean-up of the polluted area and liability and compensation (Professor Tadashi Otsuka, University of Waseda Tokyo)The future of compensation at the international level&#160; (Mrs Fiona Geoffroy , Senior legal adviser to General Secretary of EDF, French member of INLEX)Lunch&#160;: 12: /13:45After-Fukushima, the future of nuclear energyIII &#8211; Energy choicesChair Sandrine Maljean-Dubois, CNRS Senior researcher, Head of the CERICImpact of the Fukushima accident on climate and energy policies (Professor Yukari Takamura, University of Nagoya)The future of renewable energy in France&#160;(Professor Isabelle Michallet,&#160; University of Lyon 3)The role of civil society in France&#160;(Doctor Ad&#233;lie Pomade, doctor of law)Coffee Break, 15H15-15H30IV &#8211; The evolution of nuclear safetyChair Jean-Fran&#231;ois Marchi, Assistant Professor,&#160; University of Aix-Marseille, CERICImpact of the Fukushima accident on environmental administration and nuclear safety administration, and the role of civil society (Professor Noriko Okubo, University of Osaka)The future of nuclear safety after Fukushima at the international level (Laurent Kueny, Counsellor for Nuclear Safety, French Permanent Representation to&#160; UN)
