spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/12223 Developing a systemic disaster prevention paradigm Maree, Hein Management Practice Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 136-140). This research project's objective was the development of a systemic disaster prevention paradigm. Disasters can generally be classified as either natural or man-made, although hybrid disasters also do occur. The research effort focussed on man-made disasters and numerous past disasters in all spheres of life were investigated. Man-made disasters are complex, systemic phenomena that can only be understood by adopting a holistic and systemic view. This high stakes world constituted the situation to be dealt with in there search project. The research work started off with a fixation on disasters in the mining industry. It was however soon realised that in all man-made disasters there are factors and dynamics in force that are industry and context insensitive. 2015-01-15T11:28:53Z 2015-01-15T11:28:53Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12223 eng application/pdf GSB: Faculty Graduate School of Business University of Cape Town
