Abstract
It is vital to share a common image of the future with community members when dealing with revitalization from a disaster (Murosaki 2007). This study examined how people can create, keep and share this image. It is deeply involved in the way of their perspectives on disaster. The present focused on people's perspectives on disaster, featuring the case study of the Chuetsu earthquake, which occurred in Niigata Prefecture, Japan on October 23, 2004. Most of the stricken areas were small remote villages deep in the mountain areas, and as a result of the disaster, depopulation and aging had been accelerated. The present study examined how people in the most severely affected areas can achieve creative revitalization and also investigated ways in which the survivors and outside supporters collaboratively created new narratives regarding their community. Through action research, we created new narratives by activating the role of outside supporters from the perspective of group dynamics.
