Abstract

Counterpart support (strategically coordinated disaster aid through partnership) policies provide guidance for emergency management and reconstruction, focusing upon short time period after natural disasters. However, determination of the quantitative levels of counterpart support remains a key challenge area in the literature, and practice. The goal of the research is to fill such gaps by introducing an index framework consisting of an inter-regional input-output model (IRIO) and a resilience index, where appropriate measures of indirect economic losses are developed from an IRIO, and the indirect economic losses are achieved by using the provincial economic resilience assessment index system. To examine the internal validity, including systematic error or bias, we investigated the reliability of the adopting models, calculation methods and index systems. To explore the external validity of the proposed measures and resilience index over the widely applied IRIO framework, data from the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, an 8.0Ms earthquake that devastated parts of China, was utilized for obtaining parameter values of the framework. A follow-up investigation found that the fairness of counterpart support has been substantially enhanced and the satisfaction has been noticeably improved.

The data comes from the research-Major Natural Disaster Statistics and Indirect Economic loss Assessment: Based on the Study of Wenchuan Earthquake (Sun 2011). The direct economic loss assessment in Wenchuan earthquake requires two steps: First, it should carry out the field survey according to the relevant national standards, which is the basis of the assessment work. Second, the direct economic loss is getting by using the specific methods in The Fourth Part in Earthquake Field Work-Disaster Direct Loss Evaluation (GB/T18208.4-2005). (The national standard in china).

Tierney (1995) learned for questionnaires that after Northridge Earthquake, the power system resilience of SAN Fernando valley, California, USA is 77.1%. Rose and Lim 2002 studied the same region after Northridge Earthquake. The research found that the direct static resilience in this region is 95% with the simulation model. At the same time, Rose & Lim also found that the market resilience is 79.3% with I-O model calculation. Based on the above research, we might as well simply assume that after the Wenchuan earthquake, the related provincial economic system can fully recover to 80% of pre-quake levels.
