Description

Explore the complex aftermath of the Indian Ocean Tsunami through this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary South Asia Series. The disaster devastated 70 percent of Sri Lanka's coastline and resulted in an estimated 35,000 deaths, triggering massive relief and recovery efforts from national and international agencies. This book examines how the reconstruction process faced significant challenges. It looks at how political patronage, the competing efforts of hundreds of foreign humanitarian organizations, and the ongoing civil war impacted the recovery. By framing the disaster within its larger political and social context, the text provides a detailed look at the recovery landscape. Readers gain a deeper understanding of the regional dynamics involved in disaster management. The work offers descriptions and comparisons between two specific regions, making it a valuable resource for those studying South Asian politics, humanitarian aid, or disaster recovery in conflict zones. This volume is essential for researchers and students looking for a detailed analysis of how large-scale natural disasters interact with existing social and political tensions.
