Assoc. Prof. Paul J. Carnegie recently published a new journal article in a special issue of Southeast Asia: A Multidisciplinary Journal on Disaster, Risk and Conducting Human Security Research in Southeast Asia. 

By drawing on observations across the region over several years combined with a review of relevant research, the article makes the case for a grounded and disaggregated human security approach for decoding contemporary forms of jeopardy in Southeast Asia. It details how the vulnerability and exposure to disaster of at-risk communities in the region extends beyond random or natural events. This underscores the conceptual and methodological importance of a human security approach to grasp the disaster-prone territories of risk in contemporary Southeast Asia and for advancing appropriate responses.
