A Systematic Literature Review for Determining Disaster Resilience

Abstract

Disasters with increasing frequency of occurrence and with huge effects on the society have become an important problem of the societies. In order to obtain sustainability in any society, the effects of the disasters must be predicted and some plans must be prepared. Since it is very hard to predict the disasters and their effects previously, the best way in disaster management is to increase disaster resilience of societies. In this study a systematic literature review was performed for the articles investigating disaster resilience. Web of Science database was used with the keywords given below. The articles related with the determination methods of disaster resilience were selected by using a general reading and inspection of the articles. 41 articles, which are directly related to disaster management and disaster resilience, were examined. They are classified with respect to publishing year, disaster topics (types), basic criteria used, methodologies followed in the article, methods used in the evaluation stages and application country of the articles. This study is the first one conducted in this context for articles covering all disaster resilience topics. Also, it will give to researchers and scientist, who want to study on disaster resilience, a guide for finding journals, authors and selecting methodologies, methods and main criteria topics.
