Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Disaster Risk Management: Theory, Concepts and Methods provides a comprehensive examination of the theoretical foundations, concepts, methods, and practical approaches that shape contemporary disaster risk management.The book examines the complex relationships between hazards, vulnerability, exposure, resilience, preparedness, prevention, response, recovery, and disaster risk governance. Particular attention is given to understanding how disaster risks emerge and evolve within communities and institutions, as well as to the mechanisms through which societies can strengthen their capacities to anticipate, withstand, respond to, and recover from disruptive events.Combining theoretical perspectives with applied disaster risk management approaches, the book addresses risk assessment, disaster preparedness, emergency management, community resilience, risk communication, institutional capacities, critical infrastructure, disaster response, recovery, and the broader governance of disaster risk.The second revised and expanded edition reflects contemporary developments in disaster risk reduction and provides an integrated framework for understanding disaster risk as a multidimensional and dynamic process.The book is intended for university students, researchers, academics, disaster risk management professionals, emergency managers, civil protection practitioners, policymakers, public-sector institutions, and all those involved in disaster risk reduction, safety, resilience, and emergency management.Written from an interdisciplinary perspective, it can serve both as an academic textbook and as a professional reference for understanding and managing disaster risks in increasingly complex and interconnected societies.…
