A New Assessment to Measure the Risk Levels Between Natural Disasters and SocioEconomic-Political Disasters
Keyword(s):
In this paper, we attempt to analyse and compare the magnitudes of destruction caused by natural disasters versus socio-economic-political disasters around the world. To do so, we deploy a multi-disciplinary approach that encompasses history, politics, sociology, and<br>economics (Ruiz Estrada, 2011 and 2017). In the methodological discussion, we propose using<br>quantitative and qualitative methods simultaneously to systematically evaluate different type of disasters. In this context, we propose a new analytical tool: “The General Disasters Final Impact Simulator” (GDFI-Simulator). Finally, we apply the GDFI-Simulator to Africa, America, Asia, Europe and Oceania in the 19th and 20th centuries. <br>
