The Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake killed more than 6000 people. The number of dead is unusual as advanced country. When we will be faced the turning point for ten years from the earthquake and I examined about the governance for disaster mitigation and process of recovery from disaster between Japan and United States.<BR>First, I compared the governance of Japan and United States. I showed that it is shared the role of government and private sector from usually mitigation activity to recovery process in United States. The FEMA is center role of these policies. It can be useful to quickly rescue of residents at the time of disaster. In Japan, we corresponded to the change of situation on basis of the existing the disaster relief systems at the scene. Furthermore, the difference in the consciousness about the mitigation was also great.<BR>Second, while public sector could not respond to the residents' needs, the role of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake Recovery Fund which implemented the measure synthetically was large.<BR>Third it is thought that strengthening of Social Capital, such as relation of a community, contributes in mitigation and recovery from disaster.
