The term 'natural disaster' is often used to refer to natural events such as earthquakes hurricanes or floods However the phrase 'natural disaster' suggests an uncritical acceptance of a deeply engrained ideological & cultural myth At Risk questions this myth & argues that extreme natural events are not disasters until a vulnerable group of people is exposed The updated new edition confronts a further ten years of ever more expensive & deadly disasters & discusses disaster not as an aberration but as a signal failure of mainstream 'development' Two analytical models are provided as tools for understanding vulnerability One links remote & distant 'root causes' to 'unsafe conditions' in a 'progression of vulnerability' The other uses the concepts of 'access' & 'livelihood' to understand why some households are more vulnerable than others Examining key natural events & incorporating strategies to create a safer world this revised edition is an important resource for those involved in the fields of environment & development studies ...
