预制边际性：灾后蒙特塞拉特流离失所的长期住房影响

摘要本文调查了流离失所对住房的长期影响，并探讨了这些影响在受灾人口中的差异。联合王国的海外领土加勒比蒙特塞拉特岛为审查这一研究相对不足的专题提供了极好的环境。自1995年苏弗里耶尔火山爆发以来，蒙特塞拉特大部分居民流离失所，该岛南部被宣布为禁区。本文件采访了随机挑选的89名居民，包括蒙特塞拉特人和非蒙特塞拉特人，以及负责应对灾后需求的10名蒙特塞拉特和联合王国官员。本文旨在了解长期住房条件的变化，重点是住房类型的影响。结果显示，居住在为居民而不是由居民建造的住房中的受访者的住房满意度得分明显较低，预制房屋的居民得分最低。受访者认为，由于当地投入有限，使用的材料不适合当地条件和传统，自上而下提供这些房屋存在问题。最后，本文将调查结果置于灾后住房文献的背景下，并主张更多地关注如何在过程和材料方面提供这种住房。
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the long-term housing impacts of displacement and explores how these vary across disaster-affected populations. The Caribbean island of Montserrat, an overseas territory of the United Kingdom, provides an excellent setting for examining this relatively understudied topic. Following the eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano, beginning in 1995, most Montserrat residents were displaced and the island’s south was declared an exclusion zone. The paper draws on interviews with 89 randomly selected residents, including displacees and non-displacees, and with 10 Montserratian and United Kingdom officials charged with responding to post-disaster needs. The paper seeks to understand variation in long-term housing conditions with a focus on the impact of housing type. The results show that interviewees living in housing built for, rather than by, displacees had significantly lower housing satisfaction scores, with residents of prefabricated houses reporting the lowest scores. Interviewees argued that the top-down provision of these houses was problematic due to limited local input and use of materials poorly suited to local conditions and traditions. The paper concludes by situating the findings in the context of the literature on post-disaster housing and by arguing for increased attention to how such housing is provided in terms of both process and materials.
