Political consequences of the Katrina hurricane
Following the passage of the hurricane Katrina on the area of La Nouvelle-Orléans, of the thousands of people who had not fled the city remain isolated in the city, sometimes on roofs during several days. In other cities, people remained without outside assistance nearly one week after the storm.
The president George W. Bush was highly criticized for the slowness of the helps.
In addition, it appears that they are the inhabitants most modest who were touched hard by the catastrophe, either because they could not flee, or because their residence was less resistant or that they did not have the means of protecting it.
The rebuilding of New-Orleans thus comprises important issues, in particular with regard to the social and ethnic recombining of the city.
