  • Summary

    The intense release of energy by four successive earthquakes that we analysed in the second chapter and the aftershocks they have triggered has rendered seismic dynamism systemic. The most significant feature of this systemic earthquake is the 'fragility' that it has fostered in every component of the system. Fragility is defined as the loss of internal harmony and resistance in the structural components of any order as a result of earthquake impacts.

    An analysis at the national, regional and global levels of the fragilities caused by the systemic earthquake process currently under way is of critical importance with respect to developing the ability to conduct a damage assessment of these fragilities, preparing for the possibilities of a surprise collapse, and taking the necessary measures for rehabilitation.

    The third chapter examines the effects of the systemic earthquake that has emerged from within this accumulated legacy on national, regional and global structures.
