Hyperlocal Organizing: Collaborating for Recovery Over Time delves into the challenging realm of post-disaster recovery, highlighting the crucial role of broad interorganizational landscapes in uniting grassroots, neighborhoods, communities, and institutions to address recovery challenges and facilitate the return of individuals to their homes. Regrettably, government disaster policy and institutions often overlook the vital contribution of local knowledge and organizing in the recovery process. In his exploration of the organizational landscape in the Mid-Atlantic United States following Hurricane Sandy, author Jack Harris unveils how participation and collaboration create multiple pathways to recovery by fostering resilience and democratizing governance. Drawing upon powerful theories of communication and organizing, this book develops a novel framework called hyperlocal organizing to address the critical challenge of community survivability in the twenty-first century. Achieving community survivability necessitates robust organizational partnerships and interorganizational collaboration to tackle collective problems. The insights offered by Harris are of significant importance not only for post-disaster recovery but also for addressing grand challenges such as climate change, environmental justice, and equitable community development. Scholars in the fields of environmental communication, disaster studies, and emergency management will find this book particularly insightful.
