| dc.description.abstract | Disasters are part of an environmental problem that emerges as a crisis of civilization, Western culture, the rationality of the modern, globalized world economy, the crisis of the effect of knowledge and its impact on the world. Both the civilization crisis and disasters are embedded in a larger context of contemporary society, whose fundamental trait selfproduction of the risks and side effects from comparison of the transposition of the industrial paradigm for post-industrial. In the latter, the risks get new features, are less accessible to human senses, not always predictable by science, can be cross-protracted in time and even catastrophic. Likewise the risk, disasters and their magnitude potential developed over time. Similarly to the risks, disasters do not come into being in recent decades. There have always been and probably will continue to happen. What has changed about them at this historical moment, was the observation (shape). Therefore, this dissertation was concerned to note that the resonances produced by disasters on social systems, especially in systems of law and policy. In other paints, aimed to analyze the extent to which such phenomena have changed the social structures. It was intended to clarify this difficult and complex issue with contributions from the theoretical expert in environmental disasters, as well as of systems theory, which allows you to see the Law and Politics (acopladamente understood as the rule of law) with the lens of innovation and anticipation disasters and their damages. | en |
