    Interruptions: imagining an analytical otherwise for disaster studies in Latin America
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2021) Tironi Rodo, Manuel Eugenio; Campos Knothe, Katherine Veronica; Acuña Bravo, Valentina Moraima; Isola Sanchez, Enzo Antonio; Bonelli, Cristobal; Gonzalez Galvez, Marcelo Ignacio; Kelly, Sarah; Juzam, Leila; Molina, Francisco; Pereira Covarrubias, Andres; Rivas, Ricardo; Undurraga Rodriguez, Beltran Felipe; Valdivieso, Sofia
    Purpose Based on the research, the authors identify how four key concepts in disaster studies-agency, local scale, memory and vulnerability-are interrupted, and how these interruptions offer new perspectives for doing disaster research from and for the South. Design/methodology/approach Meta-analysis of case studies and revision of past and current collaborations of authors with communities across Chile. Findings The findings suggest that agency, local scale, memory and vulnerability, as fundamental concepts for disaster risk reduction (DRR) theory and practice, need to allow for ambivalences, ironies, granularization and further materializations. The authors identify these characteristics as the conditions that emerge when doing disaster research from within the disaster itself, perhaps the critical condition of what is usually known as the South. Originality/value The authors contribute to a reflexive assessment of fundamental concepts for critical disaster studies. The authors offer research-based and empirically rich redefinitions of these concepts. The authors also offer a novel understanding of the political and epistemological conditions of the "South" as both a geography and a project.
