Download or read book Human System Responses to Disaster written by Thomas E. Drabek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series is dedicated to serving the growing community of scholars and practitioners concerned with the principles and applications of environ mental management. Each volume is a thorough treatment of a specific topic of importance for proper management practices. A fundamental ob jective of these books is to help the reader discern and implement man's stewardship of our environment and the world's renewable resources. For we must strive to understand the relationship between man and nature, act to bring harmony to it, and nurture an environment that is both stable and productive. These objectives have often eluded us because the pursuit of other in dividual and societal goals has diverted us from a course of living in balance with the environment. At times, therefore, the environmental manager may have to exert restrictive control, which is usually best applied to man, not nature. Attempts to alter or harness nature have often failed or backfired, as exemplified by the results of imprudent use of herbicides, fertilizers, water, and other agents. Each book in this series will shed light on the fundamental and applied aspects of environmental management. It is hoped that each will help solve a practical and serious environmental problem.

DeSanto East Lyme, Connecticut Acknowledgments Compilation of the materials reviewed in this inventory was facilitated greatly by several staff members of the Disaster Research Center, University of Delaware (formerly at The Ohio State University) and the Natural Haz ards Research and Applications Information Center, University of Colorado.

Download or read book One Currency Two Europes written by Bruno Dallago and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aftermath of the US subprime mortgage crisis in 2008 saw its influence spread around the world, including Europe. The European crisis turned out to be longer, deeper and more resilient than anticipated. An unexpected consequence was the increasingly divergent economic and financial situation of two main groups of countries within the Eurozone, which includes the countries that adopt the euro as their common currency. The divergence was caused by a number of factors, fundamentally stemming from the dissimilar economic and financial situation of its member countries and from the incomplete institutional architecture and the monetary and fiscal policies in the Eurozone. One Currency, Two Europes: Towards a Dual Eurozone seeks to explore these factors which give rise to the Eurozone's asymmetric composition and the growing difficulties and ineffectiveness that policies meet. It presents evidence to show how the presently incomplete institutional architecture of the Eurozone is the main reason for the extreme detrimental effects of the international crisis and austerity policies, along with the asymmetric economic situation and the insufficient mutual trust demonstrated by the vulnerable as well as resilient countries. Other than presenting a complete overview and analysis of the events that unfolded in the Eurozone as a result of the financial crisis that first emerged in the US, this book also suggests possible solutions which could help to reunify the Eurozone, and make the common currency sustainable and beneficial for all member countries. One Currency, Two Europes will be useful for policymakers who want to learn from the Eurozone's experience with the financial crisis and the importance of complete institutional architectures and inter-country economic convergence. It will also serve as a reference to students and researchers who would like more in-depth analysis of the crisis and the Eurozone's fiscal, monetary and institutional past, present, and future.

Download or read book The Functioning of the Local Emergency Services Offices in Disasters written by Enrico Louis Quarantelli and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current study was partly viewed as an examination of what changes, if any, have occurred in local emergency management agencies (LEMAs) since the Disaster Research Center (DRC) systematically studied such groups about 15 years ago. Current data was drawn from field studies of how sixteen LEMAs acted in emergency (almost all disaster-like) situations. When compared with what was observed in an earlier study the present-day research found that: (1) there is still considerable variation in the overall structure and functioning of LEMAs in American communities; (2) the organizational changes which have occurred are most noticeable in preparedness and planning activities; and, (3) there has been relatively little change in the response patterns of LEMAs in actual threats or disasters--most of the same issues and problems appear at the present time as existed in the past. The continuity in variety of LEMAs seems partly accounted for by the localism of American institutions. The clearly obvious changes in the planning and preparedness stance of LEMAs perhaps stimulated by national efforts in that direction, have nonetheless not produced corresponding qualitative improvements. The frequent failure of the preparedness to translate into better response can also be attributed to a variety of historical, experiential, contingent, situational, structural and other factors which create a problem plagued disaster setting for LEMAs. Some implications of these observations and impressions are noted, and recommendations are made as to a series of questions which ought to be specifically addressed in any future work on LEMAs.
Download or read book The Disappearance of the Social in American Social Psychology written by John D. Greenwood and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-24 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Disappearance of the Social in American Social Psychology is a critical conceptual history of American social psychology. In this challenging work, John Greenwood demarcates the original conception of the social dimensions of cognition, emotion and behaviour and of the discipline of social psychology itself, that was embraced by early twentieth-century American social psychologists. He documents how this fertile conception of social psychological phenomena came to be progressively neglected as the century developed, to the point that scarcely any trace of the original conception of the social remains in contemporary American social psychology. In a penetrating analysis. Greenwood suggests a number of subtle historical reasons why the original conception of the social came to be abandoned, stressing that none of these were particularly good reasons for the neglect of the original conception of the social. By demonstrating the historical contingency of this neglect, Greenwood indicates that what has been lost may once again be regained.
