Abstract
Description
The attempted purpose of this study is to define
the main elements and features of the activities that
should lie within the scope of a working program for
management of natural disasters. It is sought to explicate
what such management involves, its interrelated character,
the underlying theoretical principles, and how organized
approaches can provide clear administrative advantages.
This in effect forms the sum and substance of the material
in the following pages. Where necessary, references to
technical issues are included, though in the main, the study is non-technical in nature.
