Description

Understand the deep connection between societal traditions and disaster management with Cultures and Disasters. This Routledge publication explores why communities respond to environmental threats in specific ways, such as why residents in the Zambesi Delta might return to flooded areas early or how forced resettlement affects farmers near active volcanoes in the Philippines. By examining the social construction of risk, this book provides a necessary look at how decision-making is embedded in local culture. It addresses whether modern intervention measures successfully acknowledge or neglect the unique cultural settings of those at risk. This text is an essential resource for anyone studying how human behavior and cultural frameworks influence disaster risk reduction and climate change responses.

Key Features

Examines real-world case studies including the Zambesi Delta flooding and volcanic resettlement in the Philippines.

Analyzes how cultural settings influence the decision-making processes of societies facing environmental risks.

Investigates the impact of forced resettlement on the daily livelihood routines of small-scale farmers.

Provides insights into how disaster intervention measures interact with local traditions and social structures.

Part of the Routledge Studies in Hazards, Disaster Risk and Climate Change series for academic depth.
