An unnatural disaster: When disaster histories broach a heated subject Conclusion: The Future of Disaster Histories. 330 $aDisasters in Australia and New Zealand brings together a collection of essays on the history of disasters in both countries. Leading experts provide a timely interrogation of long-held assumptions about the impacts of bushfires, floods, cyclones and earthquakes, exploring the blurred line between nature and culture, asking what are the anthropogenic causes of ?natural? disasters? How have disasters been remembered or forgotten? And how have societies over generations responded to or understood disaster? As climate change escalates disaster risk in Australia, New Zealand and around the world, these questions have assumed greater urgency. This unique collection poses a challenge to learn from past experiences and to implement behavioural and policy change. Rich in oral history and archival research, Disasters in Australia and New Zealand offers practical and illuminating insights that will appeal to historians and disaster scholars across multiple disciplines. 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aOral history 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aHuman Geography 606 $aOral History 606 $aPhysical Geography 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aOral history. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 14$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aOral History. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 676 $a363.34 702 $aMcKinnon$b Scott$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCook$b Margaret$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910411929703321 996 $aDisasters in Australia and New Zealand$92527170 997 $aUNINA
