Acknowledging the multidimensional nature of disasters' impacts and subsequent recovery pathways as well as the central role of communities' agency, this book introduces and discusses the political, architectural and social dimensions of disaster-induced displacement and reconstruction in the long-term view. The impact of disasters on cities and housing worldwide is expected to be magnified by climate change, threatening to displace people temporarily or permanently, with cascading impacts at individual and collective levels. However, several issues are still unexplored, such as validating survivors' agency for their recovery. The book covers diverse international case studies using qualitative and quantitative research methods and a mix of both to document varied recovery pathways. The book is also enriched with studies addressing displacement in the context of armed conflict and other highly relevant circumstances affecting development. The discussions in this book provide insights for appropriate recovery initiatives, acknowledging the role of housing as the bedrock of durable and sustainable recovery and fostering the creation of safer building environments through the "build back safer" ethos for building resilient communities. The lessons from this book provide evidence to improve disaster planning and assistance, which is greatly pertinent for governments, humanitarian agencies, domestic and international NGOs, practitioners and academicians.
