The challenges of preparing for these events, withstanding their impact, and rebuilding communities afterward require strategic responses from different levels of government in partnership with the private sector and in accordance with the public will.Disasters have a disproportionate effect on urban places. Dense by definition, cities and their environs suffer great damage to their complex, interdependent social, environmental, and economic systems. Social and medical services collapse. Long-standing problems in educational access and quality become especially acute. Local economies cease to function. Cultural resources disappear. The plight of New Orleans and several smaller Gulf Coast cities exemplifies this phenomenon. This volume examines the rebuilding of cities and their environs after a disaster and focuses on four major issues: making cities less vulnerable to disaster, reestablishing economic viability, responding to the permanent needs of the displaced, and recreating a sense of place. Success in these areas requires that priorities be set cooperatively, and this goal poses significant challenges for rebuilding efforts in a democratic, market-based society. Who sets priorities and how? Can participatory decision-making be organized under conditions requiring focused, strategic choices? How do issues of race and class intersect with these priorities? Should the purpose of rebuilding be restoration or reformation? Contributors address these and other questions related to environmental conditions, economic imperatives, social welfare concerns, and issues of planning and design in light of the lessons to be drawn from Hurricane Katrina. 410 0$aCity in the twenty-first century book series. 606 $aUrban renewal$zLouisiana$zNew Orleans 606 $aCity planning$zLouisiana$zNew Orleans 606 $aHurricane Katrina, 2005 607 $aNew Orleans (La.)$xEconomic conditions 607 $aNew Orleans (La.)$xSocial conditions 610 $aArchitecture. 610 $aBusiness. 610 $aEconomics. 610 $aFine Art. 610 $aGarden History. 610 $aPublic Policy. 610 $aTechnology and Engineering. 610 $aUrban Studies. 615 0$aUrban renewal 615 0$aCity planning 615 0$aHurricane Katrina, 2005. 676 $a363.349220976335 701 $aBirch$b Eugenie Ladner$01467612 701 $aWachter$b Susan M$0321551 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788511203321 996 $aRebuilding urban places after disaster$93844870 997 $aUNINA
