From earthquakes to oil spills, Italy is recurrently affected by different kinds of disasters. This book brings a critical perspective to post-disaster reconstruction and recovery choices, and the sometimes radical changes in individual and collective behaviours that persist following such events. Bringing together the impacts of climate change and COVID-19, this edited book will stimulate debate on policy and practice in disaster recovery.
