Dear Omar Dario

Thanks for your message. The literature review of your proposed
authors was made about six months ago.  With very important
contributions, there is a significant difference between their scope
of analysis and mine.

My intention is to contribute to the design of economic instruments
that can cope with the  "additional uninsurable risks", which are the
consequence of the distortion of markets due to the prices rise after
natural disasters. This proposition  will be illustrated using case
studies. As a micro economic approach, it defers from the authors you
mentioned, but it definitely wants to reinforce the key elements
necessary to design public and private alternatives to finance the
cost of future disasters.

As I said before, the huge task now is to compile enough evidence,
based on the local and first hand experience of the colleagues on this
list.

Best regards
