Abstract
Disaster justice is relevant to all phases of the PPRR (Prevention—Preparedness—Response—Recovery) spectrum and is concerned with the interplay of distributive and procedural dimensions of justice. In this chapter, I have outlined four attributes that, taken together, delineate disaster justice into a distinct concept. These attributes include the fact that disaster management is a moral obligation due to the Anthropocene, that the political nature of disaster governance is critical in understanding disaster management, that vulnerability to disasters is rooted in everyday inequality, and that this focus on governance emphasises the importance of recognition and empowerment of those affected by disasters.
