This Open Access Book is the first to examine disasters from a
multidisciplinary perspective. Justification of actions in the face
of disasters requires recourse both to conceptual analysis and
ethical traditions. Part 1 of the book contains chapters on how
disasters are conceptualized in different academic disciplines
relevant to disasters. Part 2 has chapters on how ethical issues
that arise in relation to disasters can be addressed from a number
of fundamental normative approaches in moral and political
philosophy. This book sets the stage for more focused normative
debates given that no one book can be completely comprehensive.
Providing analysis of core concepts, and with real-world relevance,
this book should be of interest to disaster scholars and
researchers, those working in ethics and political philosophy, as
well as policy makers, humanitarian actors and intergovernmental
organizations..
