A brief case study on recovery planning in New Orleans in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina has shown how, in a situation of destruction, disorientation and uncertainty, recovery planning was intended to create the impression of a reliable framing for individual decision making on return and reconstruction. Here, planning appeared as pro-active design, with flood prevention as a necessary and centrally assessable element. However, in the course of time and within a number of successive planning processes, it was precisely the attempt to model New Orleans’ future on a centralized, expertise-driven approach of reconstruction that provoked strong criticism. Consequently, dynamics shifted from expertise-centered recovery planning to a more de-centralized mode that stressed citizen participation, ‘lay knowledge’ and inclusion, re-defined what New Orleans should look like in the future, as well as the role and the meaning of ‘(flood) prevention’.","PeriodicalId":30203,"journal":{"name":"Behemoth a Journal on Civilisation","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89122054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Movies - and the social imaginations of the political they mirror - turn out to be completely different: Instead of interests, we find love, instead of the contract, we find sacrifice, and instead of the individual, we find the family. Turning to film therefore reveals liberal theory to suffer from a failure of the imagination.","PeriodicalId":30203,"journal":{"name":"Behemoth a Journal on Civilisation","volume":"30 3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76669346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
