Description

Displaced by Disaster: Recovery and Resilience in a Globalizing World explores the complex realities of population displacement. While displacement was once thought to be a phenomenon limited to conflict or instability in developing countries, events like Hurricane Katrina have proven that these dilemmas affect even the United States. This book examines the challenges that arise from inconsistent terminology and definitions regarding displaced populations. Readers will gain insight into the difficulties of quantifying displacement risk and the struggle to factor displacement vulnerability into community planning. The text addresses the critical need for a better understanding of the differential needs of displacees, particularly during long-term recovery periods. By looking at the gaps in current policy and institutional responses, this work provides a necessary perspective on disaster risk reduction and resilience in a globalized context.
