ABSTRACT There has been a resurgence of interest in interrogating the naturalness of hazards. The majority of these concerns draw attention to the political, social and economic factors that influence the effects of hazards in different places. This analysis seeks to contextualise these debates within the broader intellectual history of human and environmental geographical studies of natural hazards. Here, as an update to the existing debates, I provide several arguments based on fieldwork in south Iceland that can be used to further challenge the naturalness of hazards. I argue that the specific critiques of unnaturalness we deploy should depend on the problems we wish to foreground in hazardous environments.

非自然灾害:增加我们提出的问题

摘要:人们对探究危害的自然性重新产生了兴趣。这些担忧中的大多数引起了人们对影响不同地区灾害影响的政治、社会和经济因素的关注。本分析旨在将这些辩论置于更广泛的人类和环境自然灾害地理研究的知识史中。在这里,作为对现有辩论的更新,我提供了几个基于冰岛南部实地调查的论点,这些论点可用于进一步挑战灾害的自然性。我认为,我们对不自然的具体批评应该取决于我们希望在危险环境中突出的问题。
