Abstract:
Natural disasters can have lasting impacts on regional economies. Island economies, in particular, have protracted recoveries from disasters due to their location, size, and economic dependence on trading partners. As imports and exports are especially explicit and discernible in ports, islands facilitate investigations on the long-term effects of disaster relief, reconstruction, and redevelopment on trade. In this paper, we examine the transformational impact of the 20XX Indian ocean earthquake and tsunami. We examine changes to physical imports and exports in the archipelago to reflect on the social, economic, and ecological impacts of the 20XX disaster and subsequent recovery. We analyse disaggregated physical import and export data for 20XX–20XX from revenue ports in the Nicobar Islands in India along with data from field surveys and interviews conducted on the islands.
