Natural disasters push ordinary gender disparities to the extreme—leaving women not only to deal with a catastrophe’s aftermath, but also at risk for greater levels of domestic violence, displacement, and other threats to their security and well-being. Elaine Enarson presents a comprehensive assessment, encompassing both theory and practice, of how gender shapes disaster vulnerability and resilience.
Elaine Enarson is an independent scholar based in Colorado and cofounder of the Gender and Disaster Network.
