International and Local Actors in Disaster Response uses the Beirut explosion in August 2020 to explore disaster prevention and response in developing states.Disasters, whether man-made or natural, have always tested governments and their bureaucracies. Despite numerous research efforts, existing empirical literature does not provide conclusive evidence on how multiple aspects of social infrastructure can simultaneously affect disaster preparedness and recovery, and what role the international community can have. This book analyzes the role of international and local organizations in responding to the disaster in Beirut and assesses the interorganizational collaboration between the public and private sectors following the explosion. The author develops a conceptual framework of government/non-profit relations in post-disaster management and examines the long-term disaster response and intervention of both international and local communities in a developing world context.This book will be of interest to students, scholars, and researchers of disaster management and response, public administration, international relations, and the non-profit sector.

Transformative Feminist Mobilization in the Arab Region aims to identify how intersectional feminist civil society groups in selected countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)/ Southwest Asia and North Africa SWANA region advocate for change and how they interact with governments and the strategies, tools, and skills they utilize. It assesses their identification of success and failure, the factors in their advocacy campaigns, and their relationship with governments.The book addresses a gap in knowledge production on how civic engagement and social mobilization can promote accountable governance in fragile and transition contexts. The following questions are raised concerning the advocacy strategies of feminist civil society in the Arab world: To what extent are the strategies employed by intersectional feminists capable of influencing the public policy process? How can we determine the success or failure of these strategies in achieving better civic engagement and in gaining popular support for feminists’ advocacy goals? What type of dynamics is developed between the government and these feminist movements? What is the role of research in supporting a feminist form of civic engagement and new feminist social movements to build effective strategies toward more accountable governance? To answer these questions, this book analyzes feminist advocacy campaigns in the region from 2011 to the present day. Thematic case studies cover two countries each, while the broader geographical outreach of the selected campaign is also considered.Transformative Feminist Mobilization in the Arab Region will appeal to scholars and researchers studying the dynamics behind the growing role of civil society in the Arab region. It will interest those studying feminism, political science, social movements, and the MENA/ SWANA region more generally.
