| Summary/Abstract |
The local acceptance of wind energy projects has received significant attention because local opposition is a barrier to implementing a wind energy project. To decrease objections from local residents, previous studies identified factors that evoke negative attitudes. However, little research has focused on the acceptance of people who remain silent. Therefore, the situation in which there is no marked opposition has been regarded as a success for the project. This research focused on the acceptance of people who are not objecting to a wind farm in their backyard and clarifies the implications of the silent situation. One of the principal findings is that while most of the respondents accept the existing local wind farm, they have negative attitudes towards a new wind farm. This result means that the silent situation does not support further wind development. We conclude that the purpose of consensus building needs to be set to encouraging local residents to express their opinions instead of simply aiming for the absence of opposing opinions. Finally, we discuss a council model through a budgetary provision, eliciting opinions from people who remain silent, and adaptable management as the policy implications for sustainable wind development.

| Summary/Abstract |
INAUGURATED ON JANUARY 20, 2017 as the 45th President of the United States, Donald John Trump was well known to the nation as a businessman who had never filled any state posts and never craved the presidency. Back in 1990, he said: "I don't want to be President. I'm one hundred percent sure. I'd change my mind only if I saw this country continue to go down the tubes."1 This means that by 2015 when he decided to run on his own money, without sponsors and lobbyists, to become the best American president he had been absolutely sure that the country was going down the tubes.
