| Riassunto: | With contributions and editorial guidance from experts throughout the field, this book examines diverse community examples that form a framework for comparing best practices, illustrating how communities can reduce their vulnerability to disasters and recover more quickly. It identifies opportunities and challenges communities must face on the road to recovery, providing an interdisciplinary, social scientific perspective. The book emphasizes non-traditional approaches to disaster recovery and rebuilding communities and compares the rebuilding of community between different nations at different stages of development and economic power and stability. |
