| dc.description.abstract | Using the basic premise that natural disaster effects are fundamental social processes that require pro-active planning, a conceptual model of disaster losses that involves local exposure, shock, and loss within the context of inherent social system spatial and temporal vulnerability and resilience was formulated. Based upon a review of the extant literature, three theoretical hypotheses were proposed. First, disaster effects will have a negative association with social and economic development metrics; second, the higher the levels of a community’s social and economic capacity, the lower the disaster losses; and third, better planning effort, social capital, and social justice in place before a natural disaster will lower disaster losses. This study focuses on examining disaster loss from flooding with respect to local planning effort, and social and economic condition at the county level within the Mississippi River basin in the United States. Data were collected from secondary sources (archival review and existing databases). Mixed analytical methods were used including log-linear models, quantile regression, two-stage least square models, longitudinal data analysis, spatial modeling, and content analysis. Unlike previous research, which has mainly focused on a theoretical approach to disaster resilience, this study adopted an empirical approach based on panel data at the county level from secondary sources. | |
