Abstract
Housing reconstruction is critically important to realize sustainable post-disaster reconstruction. Concentrated rural settlement (CRS) development was promoted after the 5.12 Sichuan earthquake in China. Existing studies focus on the process of CRS reconstruction while overlooking potential conflicts during the reconstruction. This study aims to investigate the behavior of farmers and local government during CRS reconstruction. Evolutional game analysis is used to find the evolutionarily stable strategy for farmers and local government. Multi-agent simulation is used to validate the evolutional trend of farmers’ and local government’s behavior during CRS reconstruction. The impacts of critical factors on the evolutionary stable strategy have also been investigated. Without proper management, there would be conflicts between farmers and local government in CRS development during post-disaster reconstruction. The findings can facilitate the local government to better promote CRS development during post-disaster reconstruction.
