What does it really mean to reconstruct a city after a disaster? Is the repair and reinstatement of buildings and infrastructure sufficient? This volume argues that the true measure of success should be societal. After all, a city without people is no city at all. The book brings together academics and practitioners from a wide variety of disciplines, comparing strategies and outcomes in different scenarios and cultures from South America, Europe, and Asia. From cultural heritage and public space to education and participation, contributors reflect on the interconnection of people, culture, and environment and constructive approaches to increasing resilience and reducing vulnerability. Bringing practical examples of how communities and individuals have reacted to or prepared for disaster, the publication proposes a shift in public policy to ensure that physical reinforcement and rebuilding are matched by attention to societal needs. Invisible Reconstruction is essential reading for policymakers, academics, and practitioners working to reduce the impact of disasters or to improve post-disaster recovery.
