Description
Hurricane Katrina brought to light many questions about the American government's ability to coordinate the handling of large-scale disasters: Is FEMA effective? Are the local, state, and federal governments sufficiently coordinated? What is the role of the National Guard and the Army Corps of Engineers in responding to disasters? Is federal flood insurance capable of cutting costs? Examining these issues from different perspectives, Disaster Relief offers students the tools to form their own opinions by bringing recent events into balanced focus.
