The scope of damage brought about by disastrous events in Asia urges focus on recovery and post-disaster reconstruction from several perspectives. Addressing culture as an underpinning issue in post-disaster recovery, this book uses original material collected in Thailand after the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami to provide in-depth ethnography of Thailand’s recovery.With a focus on how culture and religion interplay in the processes of building resilience and decreasing vulnerability, it gives a deeper understanding of how disasters are experienced and dealt with on a local level.
