Negotiating expertise in Nepal’s post-earthquake disaster reconstruction
One characteristic feature of post-earthquake recovery in Nepal after the 2015 earthquakes was an owner-driven approach to house reconstruction in the most devastated rural regions, which combined a commitment to appropriate technology and building safety. To implement the model, engineering expertise was deployed throughout the affected areas involving over 3000 engineers deployed by the government’s National Reconstruction Authority (NRA). This…
Building a 'cultural city
Nepal's devastating 2015 earthquakes prompted anxious attention to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO)-designated World Heritage sites in the Kathmandu Valley and the means and methods for rebuilding damaged monuments and residences. As a value-loaded concept, the debate over 'heritage' today lays bare tensions between the national government and local authorities over the use of foreign experts, building tec…
House, Household, and Home
Through ethnographic fieldwork and analysis of policy documents about private housing reconstruction in the wake of Nepal's devastating 2015 earthquakes, we show how the contemporary "house," "household," and "home" are key sites of regulation for the state, as well as for the development and humanitarian organizations that work within it. Our discussion lays bare a more general set of questions about the relationships between these categories th…
The Ethnography of Collaboration
We came together to write a paper on the devaluation of field researcher labor as an entry point into the broader domain of research ethics to unpack what collaboration may mean in settings of incommensurable inequality. These motivations were grounded in the materialities of our involvement within an international research project focused on post-earthquake reconstruction processes in Nepal since 2015. However, since we started writing this piec…
Disaster Financialization
The political economy literature on post-disaster reconstruction tends to contrast 'disaster capitalism' narratives denouncing the predatory character of neoliberal rebuilding, and 'building back better' policies supporting market-driven reconstruction. This article seeks to provide a more nuanced account, developing the concept of 'disaster financialization' through a case study of household-level changes experienced through processes of post-ea…
