A Genesiz on Earthquake Hazard and Seismic Risk Management Policies of Macedonia


Abstract eng:
Facing significant earthquake losses in 1960ties, Yugoslavia undertook serious multidisciplinary measures to define a technically consistent and economically justifiable level of acceptable seismic risk by assuring adequate technical-juridical environment and a system for its effective and efficient implementation. Being a constitutive unit of SFRY, Macedonia was obliged to implement the federal legislation that was modified to comply with the specificities pertinent to the Republic. The authors of the paper consistently present some segments and aspects of these efforts, focusing the discussion on the genesis of the legal environment (technical regulations, context and time-line of laws adopted) and its implications for the creation of a seismic risk free environment for citizens and protection of national wealth.
