This book is an ethnographic exploration into the state's responsibility to its people in the aftermath of a natural hazard based disaster. It examines state-citizen interaction in Pakistan after large scale floods devastated the country in 2010 and then again in 2011, and transforms our understanding of contemporary disasters.
