Rethinking Community Resilience

The Politics of Disaster Recovery in New Orleans

By: Min Hee Go

Explores the unintended consequences of civic activism in a disaster-prone city After Hurricane Katrina, thousands of people swiftly mobilized to rebuild their neighborhoods, often assisted by government organizations, nonprofits, and other major institutions. In Rethinking Community Resilience, Min Hee Go shows that these recovery efforts are not always the panacea they seem to be, and can actually escalate the city’s susceptibility to future environmental hazards. Drawing upon interviews, public records, and more, Go explores the hidden costs of community resilience. She shows that—despite good intentions—recovery efforts after Hurricane Katrina exacerbated existing race and class inequalities, putting disadvantaged communities at risk. Ultimately, Go shows that when governments, nonprofits, and communities invest in rebuilding rather than relocating, they inadvertently lay the groundwork for a cycle of vulnerabilities. As cities come to terms with climate change adaptation—rather than prevention—Rethinking Community Resilienceprovides insight into the challenges communities increasingly face in the twenty-first century.

March Story, Vol. 3

By: Kim Hyung-min

Many are the forms of the Ill and diverse are their machinations. Friendship can indeed motivate some Ill to acts of malice or misguided affection, and love can lead to strange fates. March learns that the only thing you can count on when facing the Ill is that no two are alike, especially when it comes down to how to deal with them! Then a petty theft in Rodin’s shop leads to Jake reminiscing about her youth and the tragic loss that led her to become a Ciste Vihad! -- VIZ Media
