摘要:“Even after two years of living in Japan,thinking,studying,and researching radiation,I never closed the gap between anzen and anshin in my own life. The two terms always existed in a productive tension,never to be fully resolved” (138). Nicolas Sternsdorff-Cisterna’s final observations about his own experience of the fieldwork for this thought-provoking book sum up the key concern of the book: how to make sense of subjective notions of food safety and negotiate the notions of scientific evidence (anzen) and the affective idea of safety (anshin).
