Beschreibung
This book provides the first extensive examination and analysis of the use of the urbanscape during the disaster process, by connecting its elements throughout disaster phases: the pre-disaster phase, consisting of reduction in form of prevention and mitigation; the disaster event phase, consisting of the disaster impact followed by the disaster effects; and the post-disaster phase, consisting of the post-disaster recovery. This work includes the analysis of 18 disaster case studies worldwide, of which 12 case studies are within the natural and 6 case studies within the man-made disaster category. The criteria for choosing these examples is based on the division into natural and man-made disaster subcategories and the period of their occurrence, from 1991 to 2021. The main purpose of this comparative analysis is to reveal the use of the urbanscape during the disaster process, through the role of its open public spaces during each disaster phase in both natural and man-made disastercategories. The book is a useful read for researchers and students of disaster management.

“The book The Urban Rehabilitation of Post-Disaster Scapes provides a comprehensive scientific contribution, by presenting various points of view to bring out the latest research, approaches and perspectives for disaster risk reduction along with highlighting the outcomes of green growth approaches and including the science– technology–research–policy–practice interface, from both developed and developing parts. Furthermore, I believe that the book can make an important scientific contribution to future urban planning.” (Muhammad Rizal Pahleviannur, Urban Studies, Vol. 61 (7), 2024)
“The structure of the book is organised in the form of individual chapters whereby each chapter includes the abstract, key words and references which enables non-linear reading approach too. … The special contribution of this book is found in the form of how figures and tables have been developed. Each case study is graphically analysed through a collage with overlapped three photos in a diagrammatic way ... . Methodologically, the book targets the academic audience and disaster experts.” (Nerma Omićević and Bojana Bojanić Obad Šćitaroci, PROSTOR - A Scholarly Journal of Architecture and Urban Planning, Vol. 31 (02), 2023)
