本文探讨了灾害造成的长时间停电的短期和长期社会影响,以及社区发展的应对方式。社区复原力被用作分析2010年智利地震后社区对停电的反应的概念框架。根据纵向定性研究的经验证据,我们探讨了受停电影响最严重的城市之一塔尔卡瓦诺内五个低收入社区的复原能力和资源部署。我们的研究表明,社区恢复力减弱了响应和恢复期间停电的负面影响。然而,需要外部援助来减少长期停电的短期和长期社会影响。就如何提高社区复原力和减少长期停电的负面影响提出了政策建议和指导方针。
This paper examines the short and long-term societal impact of prolonged power outages caused by a disaster, and the way of coping that the community develops. Community resilience is used as a conceptual framework to analyse the community responses to power outages following the 2010 Chile earthquake. Based on empirical evidence from longitudinal qualitative research we explore the resilience capacities and resources deployed in five low-income communities within Talcahuano, one of the cities most heavily affected by the power outage. Our research reveals that community resilience attenuates the negative consequences of power outages during the response and recovery periods. However, external assistance is required to reduce the short and long-term societal impact of prolonged outages. Policy recommendations and guidelines are provided on how to increase community resilience and reduce the negative impact of long-lasting power outages.
