SANTACRUZ OLEAS, Hernán  e  ARDILA GOMEZ, Sara. ¿La Pobreza del Desastre o el Desastre de la Pobreza?: Efectos Psicológicos y Psicopatológicos en Damnificados con Larga Estancia en Campamentos después del Terremoto de Armenia, Colombia. rev.colomb.psiquiatr. [online]. 2003, vol.32, n.2, pp.135-144. ISSN 0034-7450.

Based on a descriptive study made by the Group of Psychiatric and Psychosocial Attention in Disasters (GAPPD) with people living in «temporary camps» two years after Armenia’s earthquake, we discuss the effects of lengthy stays in camps and the psychosocial aspects related with poverty and vulnerability from a cyclic conception of disaster, that puts in evidence the causal and circular correlation expressed in these three situations and its fundamental place in the perpetuation of underdevelopment.

Palavras-chave : Natural disasters; refugees; vulnerable populations; poverty.
