Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 法律學系 === 101 === In the history of Japan, they have experienced several terrible earthquakes and typhoons. The condition is very similar to Taiwan. Because of these experiences, Japan start to build their legal system of disaster countermeasures very early. This legal system is based on the “Basic Act for Disaster Countermeasures”. Under the basic act, this orderly system is divided into three parts: prevention, emergency response and reconstruction. And each parts include many individual acts that can deal with any situation. The advantages of this system are well-defined duties and clear division of work. Besides the construction of legal system, the Japanese government is also try to build a community rescue system. The government funds block parties to bring communities together and this system defines how neighbors help one another during disasters. Although Taiwan already had a “Disaster Prevention and Protection Act”, the countermeasure system build by the act seems extremely chaotic and panic while disaster happening. Afterward when people reviewed this disaster, there are some problems being pointed out, included chaos of the emergency command management system and reacting too late. Although our government have tried to solve those problems, we still worry about our safety very much while disaster happening. Because we do not know what will the government do and what we should do. This study try to provide a community rescue system for Taiwan, especially for metropolis. Although the community rescue system is very important to residences, we can not ignore that protecting people’s life and property still belongs to government’s responsibility.
