Klappentext zu „Vulnerability, Social Capital and Disaster Preparedness “
This book addresses increasing concerns regarding the relationship between social capital and disaster, highlighting conceptual definitions related to social capital and disaster, family, community, vulnerability, disaster experience, and preparedness. Focusing on a contemporary case of disaster management in Malaysia, the authors explore and establish linkages between the level of social capital and disaster preparedness among the indigenous Orang Asli people. Taking the case of the Orang Asli families as a point of departure, the book presents solutions for mobilizing social capital for disaster preparedness through multi-stakeholder involvement, promoting participation in awareness programs, ensuring indigenous people's access to resources, and proposing a prioritization of local values and culture in enabling proper planning and coordination for more disaster-resilient communities in Malaysia, Southeast Asia, and beyond. The book is broadly relevant to cases in similar economic settings where indigenous people are lagging behind in disaster preparedness. An excellent resource for sociologists, this pioneering book collates various concepts and theories relating to social and ecological networks and systems, family resilience, and stress and coping mechanisms. It is relevant to researchers focused on disasters in developing countries, globally, particularly those focused on indigenous communities.

Abul Quasem Al-Amin, Ph.D is currently working as a Senior Fellow, Centre For Asian Climate and Environmental Policy Studies as well as Professor (Ad-j) at the University of Waterloo, Canada. As an accomplished researcher with over decades of experience in 'Climate Adaptation and Climate Risk Assessment' modelling and analysis, and over 30 reports (publications) on the Adaptation Risk Assessment (including working experiences with MIT and Harvard Universities), particularly in the fields of Climate Adaptation, Climate Risk Assessment, Carbon Tax estimation and Climate Mitigation (e.g., by using Integrated Assessment Modeling (IAM), Dynamic Regional Integrated Climate Change Modeling (RICE), and Climate Change and Environmental Policy Modeling), he is associated with several research works currently at UNDP, HEKS, HAW-Germany, FORUM FOR FUTURE Singapore and many more. His recent work with INDC-related assignments in Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Bangladesh, South Korea, and Africa, as well as his work on the development of adaptive livelihoods planning, a Green Climate Fund (GCF) feasibility study in northwestern Bangladesh, and a comparative analysis of emission reduction by using carbon tax toward INDC implementation in South-East Asia (including African countries) from 2030 to 2100, would aid in understanding the works in which he is involved. In collaboration with MIT and University of Waterloo, he is currently assisting countries, particularly ASEAN, in accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy by enhancing policymakers' ability to promote green technologies, such as renewable energy development, affordable access to clean energy, and assistance to industries and other economic sectors in adopting low carbon technologies.
