S - Thematische Vertiefung: Disasters. Theories, Concepts and Perspectives

Daniel Lorenz, Martin Voß

Comments

Disasters are critical interactions within and between societies and their (bio-physical) environments, in which a variety of processes, such as increased inequalities, mobility, urbanization or technological development interact and become uncontrollable. Disaster research seeks to understand these calamitous processes and examine their causes and ramifications.

The seminar is an introduction to crisis and disaster research and will cover the following topics: theoretical approaches to disasters, the history of disaster research, risk perception, vulnerability, resilience, disaster cultures, collective and individual behavior and responses to disasters and disaster management. The topics are developed on the basis of theories and concepts, as well as case studies.

At the end of the seminar, students will have a comprehensive insight into disaster research, its theories and sub-concepts. They can relate their thematic knowledge to current disaster-related processes and problems and analyze and explain them with the help of the conceptual approaches they have learned.
