Thesis (Ph.D.)--State University of New York at Albany, 1997.

This study is an empirical test of the disorganization theory in a disaster situation. The specific event is the 1976 earthquake in the city of Tangshan, China. The disorganization caused by the disaster, as well as the reorganization developed by government recovery projects, are examined by a retrospective survey data. Measurements of disorganization and reorganization consist of three dimensions: community, family and individual. Four types of crime were concerned: mass looting, individual theft, mass violence, and individual violence. I found that mass looting is the most common offense in the disaster situation, and the normative inconsistence at the community dimension is the most important variable to explain mass looting increases at the time of the disaster and mass looting decreases after the disaster; that the disruption of neighborhood organization (resident committee) contributes to an increase in mass looting at the time of the earthquake and that the rapid recovery of work organization after the earthquake controls for mass looting. The analyses suggest that any establishment of temporary rules in a disaster must be careful because it might result in normative confusion and conflict; and that a recovering work unit is critical for controlling mass looting.
