[DM] "A profile of Tōhoku"

[rfmcdonald]

I've a post up at Demography Matters taking a look at Tōhoku, the region of northeastern Japan hit by the earthquake and tsunami and the rest. My prediction? The relative (and, occasionally, absolute) decline that the region has been going through for some time is only going to pick up. The region is never going to recover to its pre-disaster peak.

Go, read.
