一段时间以来，灾难研究人员一直在寻找社会变革，并且大多发现了连续性。本文认为，将重点从调查社会变化转移到记录连续性可能会增强对灾后情况的理解和规划，尤其是在美国等工业化社会。它借鉴卡特里娜飓风后新奥尔良的定性数据，建议使用连续性概念作为分析工具，既可以识别连续性的轴，也可以评估社会变革的可能性和可能的维度。对长期恢复计划的分析以及实地观察和对撤离人员的采访表明，尽管卡特里娜飓风后新奥尔良出现了有据可查的冲突，但社会变革的可能性似乎有限。
For some time, disaster researchers have looked for social change and mostly found continuity. This paper argues that shifting the focus from investigating social change to documenting continuity may enhance the understanding and planning of post-disaster situations especially in industrialised societies like the United States. Drawing from qualitative data from post-Katrina New Orleans, it proposes using the concept of continuity as an analytical device both to identify the axes of continuity and evaluate the likelihood and possible dimensions of social change. The analysis of long-term recovery plans, along with field observations and interviews with evacuees, suggest that despite the well-documented emergence of conflict in post-Katrina New Orleans, the likelihood of social change appears limited.
