Deconstructing the concept of camp governance toward practice-based theory building on post-disaster relocation
This article posits a simple, yet provocative, argument: post-disaster relocation sites are camps characterized by “incompleteness” where multiple actors seek to govern. The discursive framing of relocation sites as long-term solutions where residents are safe from natural hazards and integrate into their new communities suggests that relocation sites are not camps. Within these camp spaces, diverse actors attempt sometimes competing, sometimes c…
Adaptability of Low-Income Communities in Postdisaster Relocation
Problem, research strategy, and findings Although community relocation is increasingly a policy option following disasters, research has shown that it often fails to achieve its goals. Few studies of community relocation following disasters, however, have taken a long-term interdisciplinary view of the realities of multiple actors involved in these processes. In this study I qualitatively tracked 6 years of the government-led relocation of Typhoo…
Public-private collaboration for disaster risk management
Policy‐Supported Social Capital in Postdisaster Recovery
Women play critical roles in communities when disaster strikes. However, there has been minimal research on their roles and accomplishments in postdisaster scenarios (Alway, Belgrave, and Smith 1998; Fordham 2003). One reason is the traditionally flexible and intermediary role that women play in society. For instance, many women work part time or are involved in home-based businesses to financially support their family while shouldering daily hou…
Earthquake impact mitigation in poor urban areas
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to show that the Philippines is often described as the melting pot of natural disasters (typhoons, floods and torrential rains). As part of the Pacific ring of fire, the Philippines is also prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. In the current disaster management scheme, the poor are likely to be put last. Conventional risk reduction mitigation methods (such as land use and building codes) are failing. A…
