Abstract

Following the arguments presented by LA RED related with disaster prevention, this article reviews some of the central ideas of "Development", to establish causal relationships between this and the generation of hazardous situations in communities and their possible evolution to disaster. Then, we outline some elements that would allow, within a territorial perspective and taking public management in Latin America as a referent, the implementation of an Integrated Risk Management policy. The contributions of this work relies on the intention to make it clear how necessary, and yet insufficient, it is for the articulation between objectives and strategies of Territorial Planning and Risk Management to be under a single policy of Planning: The Social Risk Management (GSR), defined as an institutional and social process that enables the convergence of policies, actors, strategies and actions, around the elimination and reduction of conditions and factors that generate vulnerabilities in communities upon potentially destructive events
