The social construction of crisis: Deconstructing the complex pathways linking disaster, conflict, and peace

Creator:: Peters, Laura E. R.
Abstract:: We are witness to an ever tighter coupling between natural hazard-related disasters ("disasters") and violent social conflict ("conflict").

The field of disaster diplomacy, by contrast,...

Resilience of large river basins : applying social-ecological systems theory, conflict management, and collaboration on the Mekong and Columbia Basins

Creator:: MacQuarrie, Patrick R.
Abstract:: River basins provide essential services for both humans and ecosystems. Understanding the connections between ecosystems and society and their function has been at the heart of resilience studies and has become an increasing important endeavor in research and practice. In this dissertation, I define basin resilience as a river basin...
