Using qualitative content analysis, this article evaluates the history of the Japanese nuclear wastewater disaster, as well as support and opposition voices from other countries, academia, and civil society organizations. It explains how China may use the “policy + public opinion” system of governments and non-governmental organizations to defend its interests in international public opinion and eventually gain worldwide discourse power that matches China’s strength.","PeriodicalId":91589,"journal":{"name":"Open journal of political science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70553617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The agricultural economy is one of the main sources of \u0000income for Zimbabwe’s national wealth.
