Abstract
[Unlike pandemics or climate change, which are global by definition, so-called natural disasters are territorialized events. Their effects rarely extend beyond a country’s borders, and even though their causes are sometimes related to wider global phenomena such as global warming or development issues, the link is not often clearly visible. Furthermore, countries are sovereign in deciding to solicit international aid after disaster has struck and remain the central actors of emergency operations. The international scope of disasters (even transnational, when action beyond the state level is required) is therefore not self-evident. It must be constructed, bringing into play discourses, practices, and mechanisms that link people, tools, and language.]
