use of historical analogies  

Definición

  • When disasters strike, people often search their memories for a “historical analogy”—typically referencing their memories about past disasters and how others responded to try to find a way to deal with the sense of loss and confusion that occurs following a disaster. This search for historical knowledge is shared by the public as well as disaster responders and policy makers. [Source: Encyclopedia of Crisis Management; Historical Analogies, Use of]
