<p>In this work an explanatory diagnosis is presented on what has happened in Latin America regarding disasters in the last 30 years. With that aim a social analysis perspective is adopted, having as central argument the factors structuring risk situations and mostly the vulnerability of population, which let us understand the magnitude and recurrence (frequency with which they occur) of the catastrophes in the region. The persistence of poverty, the high concentration of population in the cities and the complex environmental problems the society creates every day, among others, are some of the processes considered in the analysis.</p> |
