<< residentContra >> *** for player *** Do your best ! Never give up !! *** information on the actor you play *** You represent the organization for social movement, "opponent residents", which intends to oppose construction of addional nuclear reactors from a standpoint of residents and start a active movement against nuclear plants. *** aim of the actor you play *** The reasons of opposition is : - uneasiness and distrust for the safeness of atomic energy and nuclear power plants. - a lot of bad feeling toward nuclear administration ignoring residents' opinion. and so on. In addition to them, you can appeal to everyone what you feel. *** most important events for the actor you play *** *** initial condition of the actor you play *** The power plant has already constructed and operates 4 nuclear reactors. You have moved into action against every plan of constructing nuclear power plants, but in vain. Now the percentage of townspeople who are sure to support you is 5%. 10% of townspeople show their opinion that they agree with constructing and operating reactors. The rest (85%) are careful to show their opinion, and some people among them must want to support you with a proper understanding of the purpose of your movement, but they hesitate to do so for the reason that 4 reactors have been already in operation, they owe employment or some benefits to the power company, they are afraid of residents supporting nuclear power plants, and so on. In this gaming scenario, the variety of residents is not considered, and you makes approaches to collective residents (" general public") through movements for enlightenment etc.. *** relationship with other actors *** *** actions and alternatives *** When the gaming begins and electric power company start on enlarge the nuclear plant ( i.e. you hear the news that the power company proposes setting about the environmental assesment), you should start on an opponent movement. When you start the movement, you can explain the object of it for the purpose to make yourselves completely understood extensively. Next you can practice opponent movements actively. Generally speaking, you can - appeal to the general public. - appeal to the opponent town assembly members. - appeal to the fishermen association - collect signatures etc. A process of collecting signatures is... 1) apply to the mayor for qualification to collect signatures. 2) collect signatures. 3) hand in the signatures. When meyor's election is held, you should stand as a candidate for the mayor in order to stop expansion of the nuclear plant from the standpoint of an administrator. We hope you put up a good fight ! *** resources *** *** notice *** *** case study ***
