It is the inaugural book in the series ?Disaster Studies and Management? and deals with questions such as ?Is disaster management a field of practice, a profession, or simply a new area of study?? Exploring intersectionalities, the book also examines areas of research that could help enhance the discourse on disaster management from policy and practice perspectives, revisiting conventional event-centric approaches, which are the basis for most writings on the subject. Several case studies and comparative analyses reflect a critical reading of research and practice concerning disasters and their management. The book offers valuable insights into various subjects including the challenge of establishing inter- and multi-disciplinary teams within the academia involved in disaster studies, and sociological and anthropological readings of post-disaster memoryscapes. Each of the contributors has an enduring interest in disaster studies, thus enriching the book immensely. This book will be of interest to all the students and scholars of disaster studies and disaster management, as well as to practitioners and policymakers. 410 0$aDisaster Studies and Management,$x2730-5635 606 $aEnvironmental sociology 606 $aNatural disasters 606 $aEnvironmental law 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aEnvironmental Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22160 606 $aNatural Hazards$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G32000 606 $aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U16002 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aEnvironmental Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U38000 606 $aHuman Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X26000 615 0$aEnvironmental sociology. 615 0$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aEnvironmental law. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 14$aEnvironmental Sociology. 615 24$aNatural Hazards. 615 24$aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEnvironmental Politics. 615 24$aHuman Geography. 676 $a658.4056 702 $aAndharia$b Janki$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910383833903321 996 $aDisaster Studies$92210809 997 $aUNINA
