Abstract

This collaborative autoethnography (CAE) by five emerging disaster researchers explores the transformative role of Bourdieu's theories in the realm of disaster research. Despite the rapid expansion of disaster scholarship since the late 1970s, the field's theoretical foundations and frameworks have been relatively underdeveloped. The authors, united by their engagement with Bourdieu's work in their doctoral research, reflect on how his theories shaped their journeys into Critical Disaster Studies (CDS) scholars and propelled the advancement of disaster theories. The paper navigates the ambiguity and richness of Bourdieu's concepts, illustrating how they are used beyond their original domains to find relevance in contemporary disaster research. Each author shares their unique pathway for encountering and applying Bourdieu's theories, revealing a diverse spectrum of applications, from understanding symbolic violence in disaster contexts to analysing social vulnerability and resilience. Through this shared dedication, the authors aim to expand the horizon of social science disaster research and inspire others, especially early career researchers (ECRs), to engage profoundly with Bourdieu's contribution to the field.

布迪厄与灾害研究中的早期职业研究人员（ECRs）：合作式自述（CAE）

这篇由五位新兴灾害研究人员撰写的合作自述（CAE）探讨了布迪厄理论在灾害研究领域的变革作用。尽管自 20 世纪 70 年代末以来，灾害学术研究迅速发展，但该领域的理论基础和框架却相对欠缺。作者们在博士论文研究中与布迪厄的著作结下了不解之缘，他们反思了布迪厄的理论如何影响了他们成为关键灾害研究（CDS）学者的历程，并推动了灾害理论的发展。本文探讨了布尔迪厄概念的模糊性和丰富性，说明了这些概念如何被用于其原有领域之外，并在当代灾害研究中找到相关性。每位作者都分享了他们接触和应用布尔迪厄理论的独特途径，揭示了从理解灾害背景下的象征性暴力到分析社会脆弱性和复原力等各种不同的应用范围。通过这种共同的奉献精神，作者们旨在拓展社会科学灾害研究的视野，并激励其他人，尤其是早期职业研究人员（ECRs），深入了解布尔迪厄对该领域的贡献。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction (IJDRR) is the journal for researchers, policymakers and practitioners across diverse disciplines: earth sciences and their implications; environmental sciences; engineering; urban studies; geography; and the social sciences. IJDRR publishes fundamental and applied research, critical reviews, policy papers and case studies with a particular focus on multi-disciplinary research that aims to reduce the impact of natural, technological, social and intentional disasters. IJDRR stimulates exchange of ideas and knowledge transfer on disaster research, mitigation, adaptation, prevention and risk reduction at all geographical scales: local, national and international. Key topics:- -multifaceted disaster and cascading disasters -the development of disaster risk reduction strategies and techniques -discussion and development of effective warning and educational systems for risk management at all levels -disasters associated with climate change -vulnerability analysis and vulnerability trends -emerging risks -resilience against disasters. The journal particularly encourages papers that approach risk from a multi-disciplinary perspective.
