Scientific disciplines have their own view on catastrophes. In this book they discuss Gershom Scholem´s Concept of Jewish Totality and describe the situation of Displaced Persons in Germany as well as the Nakba in 1948. They evaluate risk and opportunities from the insurance viewpoint and remind us of Hamburg´s Flood Disaster in 1962 as well as the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011. The book also includes other historical catastrophes in Japan, the Lisbon earthquake in 1755 and the Age of Enlightenment, and the eruption of the Tambora in 1815 followed by 'The year without summer'. 606 $aHistory 606 $aHistorical geology 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aMedicine 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 606 $aHistorical Geology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17020 606 $aInternational Relations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912000 606 $aMedicine/Public Health, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H00007 606 $aEnvironmental Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aHistorical geology. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aMedicine. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 14$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistorical Geology. 615 24$aInternational Relations. 615 24$aMedicine/Public Health, general. 615 24$aEnvironmental Economics. 676 $a900 702 $aHoppe$b Andreas$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254783303321 996 $aCatastrophes$91998309 997 $aUNINA
