This paper explores how a city can assess its disaster-prone nature and what it can do with the information it gathers. The authors propose three principles. These are: (1) Focusing on consequences rather than causes of disasters, (2) learning from similarities between disasters, and (3) taking a systems approach to recovery. A case study of disaster management in the city of Los Angeles illustrates the discussion.
