Book excerpt: A natural disaster is sanctioned by legal decree to be an act of God, and so it could be interpreted, though equivocally, as a divine means of correction or reprimand for various inequities. The plan to relocate occupants of a seaside fishing village and to acquire the land for the construction of a holiday resort caused some turmoil among the residents. However, a volcanic eruption brought an abrupt halt to the plan before it could be implemented.
