This book offers a comprehensive analysis of socio-natural disaster recovery projects, using the Bam and Wenchuan earthquakes as case studies to evaluate their success and failure. With escalating losses from socio-natural disasters and a high failure rate among recovery projects, it addresses the urgent need for effective management guidelines by leveraging past experiences. Tackling the discrepancy between reported project success and public perception, the book emphasizes the importance of stakeholder perspectives and assessment timing. It sets out to solve the problem of ineffective disaster recovery management by proposing a robust framework and practical guidelines for successful recovery projects, aiming to prioritize project goals and refine evaluation criteria, leading to more desirable outcomes and enhanced community resilience. The main topics covered include:
1. Critical Overview and Conceptual Framework: The book begins with a thorough overview of socio-natural disaster recovery projects, leading to the development of a conceptual management framework. This framework outlines essential steps based on a continuous life cycle to streamline recovery efforts.
2. Success Factors and Dimensions: It identifies key success factors and dimensions to comprehensively measure project outcomes. These findings are structured through rigorous triangulation of primary and secondary data.
3. Comparative Policy Analysis: A micro-comparison of recovery policies in Iran and China, two of the most vulnerable countries, provides practical suggestions using success factors, influential pathways, and SWOT analysis.
4. Community Recovery Dynamics: The book explores why communities recover differently, applying qualitative comparative analysis to neighborhoods in Bam and towns affected by the Wenchuan earthquake.
The target audience includes policymakers, project managers, researchers, and practitioners in disaster management, urban planning, and civil engineering. Academics and government officials responsible for managing socio-natural disaster recovery projects will find this book invaluable for improving project success and community resilience.
