    Capítulo V. Configuraciones multi amenza de riesgo: la búsqueda de patrones comunes en tres ciudades de América Latina durante el Covid
    (FLACSO Costa Rica, 2023) Jiménez Barboza, Gustavo Adolfo; Lavell, Allan; Chávez Eslava, Ángel; Martínez González, Marina B.; Milanés Batista, Celene; Barros Saas, Cinthya; Padilla Llano, Samuel; Miranda Sandoval, Diego; Carpio Ulloa, María José; Salas Castro, Manfred
    El mundo de hoy es más del 50 % urbano y en constante aumento.Más de 4 mil millones de personas viven en pueblos y ciudades, cerca de mil millones de ellos en barrios marginales. América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) es, por mucho, el continente austral más urbanizado, más del 80 % de su población vive en pueblos y ciudades, y tiene más de 550 millones de personas. La contribución de las ciudades al Producto Nacional Bruto (PIB) es, en promedio, más de 60 %, lo cual es 1,5 veces lo que se espera en ciudades europeas (Arsht, 2014).

    Multi-hazard Risk Configurations: A Search for Common Patterns in Three Latin American Cities During COVID-19
    (SAGE, 2022) Jiménez Barboza, Gustavo Adolfo; Lavell, Allan; Chávez, Ángel; Barros, Cinthya; Martínez, Marina; Milanes, Celene B.
    COVID-19 has seriously affected urban populations worldwide. It comprises a disaster category that accompanies more recurrent or familiar expressions associated with earthquakes, flooding, landslides, subsidence and tsunamis. Despite the differences in these hazard types, the expressions of vulnerability and exposure and their causes are often similar and many of these are based on pre-existing everyday living conditions. The present article provides preliminary evidence and analysis from the social and territorial incidence of COVID-19 to help confirm the now increasingly argued hypothesis that susceptible populations and areas are often the same, independent of the hazard type. It argues for more integral,livelihood and development-informed approaches to disaster risk management, based primarily on vulnerability and exposure reduction and control.
