I’m Rosette and further responding to Karlene Durfey’s article once more…
Karlene Durfey, (forum respondent) states within her introduction:
“definition of disaster is never really decided: and will always be a continued discussion for as long as mankind has a say in the processes of the formulation the debate, debacles, and arguments” – Karlene Durgey
Hazards in such of disaster implicit and explicit within culture is also dealing with the set as shared or otherwise in regards to and in conjunction with correlated environment rules of behavior.
The chapter within a literary piece on Disasters, The Angry Earth: focused much on social and the individual of behavoristics and dealings somewhat goes further in depth in behaviorism within cultural studies and sociological aspects.
“one major concept I continue to find in common in most of our readings is how the definition of disaster is never really decided: and will always be a continued discussion for as long as mankind has a say in the processes of the formulation the debate, debacles, and arguments.” – Karlene Durfey stated…
“Disasters are conjunctural events. They document linkages between past and present, tradition and politics , response and change, behavior, adaptation, and survivability at a time when the issue of…” – Page 15 of The Angry Earth (Hoffman, Susanna)
Hoffman mentions pre- Chapter One, “The definition of [disaster research] involves issues of policy as well as science,…an event a disaster or not may set in motion programs and practices which impact affected communities. “
Disaster in Emergency Management Disaster as one way not to decide within the debate, debacle, and argumentations, then conjunct to event or as correlation of environment and hazards of such environment and Hoffman stating documented linkings of traditional politics as part of the [response/change/ behaviorisms,etc] as stating potentially an analysis summary of combining a two definition researched into one. As in conjunct event to debate, debacle, to correlate and conjunct to environmental hazards conjuncting and linking response politics and so forths is to potentially define a form of Emergency management with conjuncts of debate – correlated politics to environmental hazard responses and so forths. Responses to Political and emergency, environmental debacles and hazards as well as the responses to the emergency management recovery and prepare processes could be set up to establish – Response Emergency Preparation.
So while seeking to define the disaster term alone with two very good quotes in the future. In the meantime a disaster response emergency preparation definition shall do. Thanks to my research references Hoffman, Susanna and Karlene Durfey.
To develop more within further review and research, however it struck my attention:
“The result of
this evolution is a National Response System based on
the National Response Plan and the National Incident
Management System that is perceived to have failed in
the response to Hurricane Katrina.” – Harrald, R.
The potential development of my Response Emergency Preparation Organizational potential proposition doesn’t at first feel like it is to the ‘evolution’ of a National Response System with inspirations of two other National response and Incident Programs.
