Table 1. Concerns related to the returning Nagadoro district.

Expected cases Content Explanation
Returned Difficulties in restarting/continuing farming Difficulties in making a living from agriculture due to the absence of family members and neighbors, and the insufficient radiation decontamination.
Discriminatory treatment of products and residents from villagers Discriminations that residents of Nagadoro district are eccentrics and its agricultural products should not be treated together with those of other districts in the Village due to the recognition that the district is severely polluted by radiation.
Not returned Shift of the responsibility of returning home from the country to residents by scapegoating The shifting of responsibility from the government to the residents, including harsh social criticism of the residents of Nagadoro district for not returning even though the evacuation order has been lifted; the villainization of the residents who decided not to return, when it should have been the government’s responsibility to recover the district to a habitable state.
Other (complaint on the situation) Loss of options for continued evacuation The loss or weakening of the position of residents of the Nagadoro district who continue to evacuate, and of administrative compensation, resulting from the legal change that they are no longer "evacuees" after the evacuation order is lifted.
