This paper discusses natural disaster research from agenda setting and public policy perspectives. I note the lack of such a large contribution of sociolegal research to the broader social science of disaster, and argue that there can be fruitful connections between sociolegal studies and the interdisciplinary and rapidly evolving field of disaster research. Legal scholars have a great deal to contribute to our understanding of social responses and behaviours in the face of these often-frightening events.
Este artículo analiza la investigación sobre desastres naturales desde la perspectiva de establecer un calendario y de política pública. Se menciona la falta de una investigación sociojurídica tan completa en el campo más amplio de las ciencias sociales de desastres, y se defiende que pueden darse conexiones fructíferas entre los estudios sociojurídicos y el campo interdisciplinario y en rápida evolución de la investigación de desastres. Los profesores de derecho pueden hacer una gran contribución a nuestra comprensión de las respuestas y comportamientos sociales frente a estos acontecimientos, a menudo aterradores.
