Abstract

[Applying institutional logics proved to be an innovative approach to humanitarian and disaster studies. As I see it, its most significant merit is that it offers an alternative path to understanding and studying the different cognitive structures and processes that both humanitarians and disaster victims follow, especially when they meet right after a disaster. The study provides the basis to continue the extensive research that has already been done. It would lend itself well for use by scholars interested in forwarding our knowledge on the benefits and harms of international convergence.]
