In August of 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast of the
United States, directly affecting 1.5 million people. Only one year
earlier, an Indian Ocean tsunami struck Indonesia, destroying or
damaging more than 370,000 homes. As forces of nature, hurricanes,
tsunamis, earthquakes and floods are not limited to occurrences in
any one community or any one country. In Law and Recovery from
Disaster: Hurricane Katrina, attention is focused on the ability of
law and legal institutions to not only survive such disasters but
to effectively facilitate recovery. Using Hurricane Katrina as a
lens, contributors address a wide range of issues of interest to
people concerned about property law, disaster preparedness,
housing, insurance, small business recovery, land use planning and
the needs of people with disabilities. While Hurricane Katrina is
the focal point for discussion, the lessons learned are readily
applicable to a variety of disaster situations in a wide range of
global settings.
