Disasterland: An Ethnography of the International Disaster Community de Sandrine Revet

Disasterland: An Ethnography of the International Disaster Community: The Sciences Po Series in International Relations and Political Economy

Autor Sandrine Revet Traducere de Cynthia Schoch, Katharine Throssell
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2021
This book analyses the making of the international world of ‘natural’ disasters by its professionals. Through a long-term ethnographic study of this arena, the author unveils the various elements that are necessary for the construction of an international world: a collective narrative, a shared language, and standardized practices. The book analyses the two main framings that these professionals use to situate themselves with regards to a disaster: preparedness and resilience, arguing that the making of the world of ‘natural’ disasters reveals how heterogeneous, conflicting, and sometimes competing elements are put together.

Recenzii

“Disasterland is a great book not only for scholars interested in international organisations, transnational professionals and disaster risk reduction, but also practitioners, as it offers to bring practical reflexivity in the work of disaster professionals. … the book is accessible to a wide range of audiences and avoids academic jargon as much as possible, while leading the reader through an intellectual journey into the work of disaster professionals ‘behind the scenes’.” (Kari De Pryck,European Review of International Studies ERIS, Vol. 8, 2021)
