The analysis demonstrates that the key factors influencing disaster inequality include political orientation, disaster experience, capacity of metropolitan governments to recover from disasters, the effectiveness of government-citizen communication, social disaster vulnerability, resilience of communities, social conflict, distribution of resources in an unfair manner. Furthermore, the interplay between the disaster management capacity of basic local governments and the unequal distribution of resources during the recovery phase, and between the disaster management capacity of metropolitan governments and the unequal distribution of resources during the prevention phase, was identified as a key factor influencing disaster inequality. The study proposes policy directions as follows: strengthening of protection for vulnerable groups, enhancement of communication and cooperation between actors, expansion of citizen participation in the formation of disaster management policy, resource distribution process.
