Creating Katrina, Rebuilding Resilience: Lessons from New Orleans
on Vulnerability and Resiliency presents a unique, integrative
understanding of Hurricane Katrina in the New Orleans area, and the
progression to disaster vulnerability as well as resilience
pathways. The book integrates the understanding of vulnerability
and resiliency by examining the relationships among these two
concepts and theories. The disaster knowledge of diverse
disciplines and professions is brought together in this book, with
authors from social work, public health, community organizing,
sociology, political science, public administration, psychology,
anthropology, geography and the study of religion. The editors
offer both expert and an insider perspectives on Katrina because
they have lived in New Orleans and experienced Katrina and the
recovery. An improved understanding of the recovery and
reconstruction phases of disaster is also presented, and these
disaster stages have been the least examined in the disaster and
emergency management literature.
