Disaster And Crisis Management

Hazards, both natural and man-made, pose a major risk to vast swathes of the world's population. In the post 9/11 world, the scale, frequency, and intensity of these disasters and crises have dramatically increased, and the failures in public sector response have prompted a critical need to re-evaluate disaster management practices. This book ask what we have learned from past crises and offers ways to think about policy interventions, and the mechanisms of governance, in a way which can inform future responses to disaster. This book was originally published as a special issue of Public Management Review.
