El huracán Karl: concepciones sobre su origen en una comunidad de Veracruz

Journal article | Zeitschriftenartikel

The aim of this article is to analyze the diverse ideas and perceptions from adults affected by hurricane Karl in 2010, in the Municipality of Las Antigua, Veracruz. The information was obtained from key informants and focus groups interviews, in addition to the journal reviewing. In general, people relate the cause of the hurricane to natural and religious forces not recognizing the responsibility of the authorities in charge of designing public politics, as well as the lack of personal and social prevision to face devastating effects. This whole perception makes prevention difficult and it maintains the vulnerability of the communities not allowing social cohesion and collective action.
