ANTH 207: Disasters and Society
3.00 Credits
Southern Illinois University Carbondale
For anthropologists, disasters are not strictly natural events, but are catastrophes that are caused by societal practices that put certain groups of people at greater risk of harm than others during events like earthquakes and hurricanes. For this reason, disasters can be very informative about how societies function as well as their underlying problems. This class will teach students to identify and prevent the causes of disasters.
