The Political Feasibility Analysis of Post-Disaster Relocation Policy: The Case of Relocation of Teng- Zhi Tribe, Kaoshiung County

Relocation involves a variety of aspects, which makes this issue more complicated. Based on previous experience, lack of stakeholders’ endorsement to the policy contents is one of the reasons why it is seldom to see successful cases for relocation for reducing losses from natural hazards.

The methods included are the methods of stakeholder analysis, interview, list of political feasibility, and scenario writing.
