Summary ① Japanese are shy to speak openly public policies? NO. Despite a complex issue, DP format worked. ②Some demographic bias but not too significant. No significant difference in policy attitude. ③Significant learning → considered opinion ④5% participant rate is very low → media cooperation matters more → honorarium matters less
⑤ 4DPs have been carried out after the first one. Still the recognition by general public and the influence are not high. ⑥ DP on Japans Energy Future Before 3.11 60 to 70% supported Nuclear Power plant After deny it. Some propose to decide by referendum Limit of calculative method.
