Outline and Purpose of the Course 災害は低頻度ではあるが大規模な影響をもたらすリスク事象である。この種のリスクを適切に管理していくためには、リスクの「抑止」、「軽減」、「移転」、「保有」という対策を総合的に計画し、実施していくことが重要である。本講では、災害を理解し、それに対するリスクマネジメントを構成していくことを可能とするような経済学的方法に関して講述する。
A natural disaster is a low-frequent and high-impact risk event. It is very important to make an integrated risk management plan, which consists of various countermeasures, e.g., prevention, mitigation, transfer, and preparedness. In this class, economic approaches for understanding features of natural disaster risk and designing appropriate countermeasures of integrated disaster risk management.

Students are expected to understand the basic principles of disaster risk management. They also learn how the socio-economic impact of disasters is brought about to the society and is propagated through an economic system. Qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze economic impacts are to be understood. The final goal of the class is for students to have the ability to discuss disaster risk management policies based on disaster economics learned at this class.
