The Invention of Disaster

The Invention of Disaster

JC Gaillard

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
nidottu
This theoretical contribution argues that the domination of Western knowledge in disaster scholarship has allowed normative policies and practices of disaster risk reduction to be imposed all over the world. It takes a postcolonial approach to unpack why scholars claim that disasters are social constructs while offering little but theories, concepts and methods supposed to be universal in understanding the unique and diverse experiences of millions of people across very different cultures. It further challenges forms of governments inherited from the Enlightenment that have been rolled out as standard and ultimate solutions to reduce the risk of disaster. Ultimately, the book encourages the emergence of a more diverse set of world views/senses and ways of knowing for both studying disasters and informing policy and practice of disaster risk reduction. Such pluralism is essential to better reflect local realities of what disasters actually are around the world.This book is an essential read for scholars and postgraduate students interested in disaster studies as well as policy-makers and practitioners of disaster risk reduction.

Ancient knowledge. Modern cover-ups. A discovery lost to time. For thousands of years, the truth about civilization has been hidden—suppressed, exploited and buried beneath layers of deception. Some believe the answers lie within the Great Pyramid of Giza, but no one has ever found them. Those who tried were ridiculed, silenced or worse. When journalist Daniel Rossler and researcher Dr. Sarah Clarke stumble upon a secret hidden within the pyramid, their discovery threatens to upend everything we know about the past. What begins as an academic curiosity quickly becomes a fight for survival as they uncover evidence that powerful forces never intended to see the light of day. As they push forward, skepticism turns to hostility, and dangerous enemies close in. The Orion Society, a ruthless secret organization, will stop at nothing to keep the truth buried. But they’re not the only ones watching. Intelligence agencies, military forces and even the President of the United States have their own reasons for keeping the past hidden. Caught in a deadly struggle between those who seek the truth and those who will do anything to suppress it, Rossler and Clarke must unravel an ancient mystery before it’s too late. Will they reveal humanity’s greatest secret, or will the truth die with them? The Tenth Cycle is a gripping techno thriller packed with lost history, global conspiracies, and a battle for knowledge that could change everything.

They return empty-handed—except for one thing: mysterious footage of strange artifacts buried deep beneath the ice. Everyone who views the film receives a chilling warning: speak of what you've seen and face the consequences. More than a decade later, Professor Charles Summers stumbles upon an impossible discovery—a 16th-century map depicting Antarctica’s coastline with astonishing accuracy. Even NASA scientists are forced to update their own modern surveys. But how could such a map exist three centuries before Antarctica was officially discovered? Who created these maps? How did they see Antarctica before it was buried in ice? Could an ancient civilization have once thrived there? But science says Antarctica has been frozen for millions of years… Determined to uncover the truth, Summers and the Rossler Foundation launch an expedition deep into the icy wilderness. But they’re not the only ones searching. The ruthless Orion Society will stop at nothing to ensure the past stays buried.
