Reseña del libro "Religious Responses to Earthquake and Volcanic Eruption Disasters (en Inglés)"
This book argues that, although secular and religious perspectives on disasters have often conflicted, today there are grounds for believing that the world's major faiths have much to contribute to the processes of post-disaster recovery and future disaster risk reduction (DRR). It seeks to demonstrate how contemporary dialogues between theologians, disaster scholars and policymakers are defining new ways. These ways explore the resources of religious communities e.g. buildings, human resources and finance may be used to foster successful policies of disaster risk reduction, particularly in the aftermath of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Musing on the relationships between religion and disasters has occurred for millennia and has affected many societies worldwide. In societies where the world's major religions - Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Shinto - have been and remain dominant, attempting to find supernatural explanations for disasters has occurred throughout history and there have been many theologies seeking to explain why people suffer losses. It is argued that developments both within these traditions of faith and in how disasters are understood by the hazard research community of researchers and planners has allowed a new modus vivendi to emerge which emphasises both a recognition of religious worldviews by academic writers and disaster planners on the one hand, and a desire by people of faith and their leaders to be more fully committed to the goals of disaster risk reduction (DRR). The book will appeal to those who are interested in the interface between disasters and theology across the principal religions of the world. This includes researchers and students in geology, geography, theology and religious studies. It will also be useful for specialist academic audience and the educated general reader.
