dc.description.abstract | The 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami ended as quickly as it appeared, but its devastating
aftermath will not be easily forgotten. Millions of human lives were affected, with entire com-
munities swept away. As the tsunami revealed, natural disasters represent a significant chal-
lenge for human security. No one can feel secure when nature is so unpredictable and natural
threats are left unmanaged. What the tsunami also showed was that some governments are ill-
equipped to assist disaster victims. Unfortunately, some countries do not fulfill their promises to
provide relief funds to victims and endanger both people’s living conditions and the state’s
overall performance. Discussing the 2004 Tsunami and other natural disasters’ impact in Asia,
this paper will propose some suggestions to devise a better politics of natural disaster that puts
people and state interests in proper balance and perspective. | en_US |
