Exercise jective: To practice identifying dynamic complexity ob Instructions: Describe how the following examples illustrate dynamic complexity. Example 1: Hurricane Katrina devastated economies, communities, families and indi- viduals along the US Gulf coast in 2005. Although the levees in New Orleans were known to be vulnerable (Fischetti 2001), policymakers chose not to invest the resources needed to strengthen them. The failure of the levees and the flooding that followed have led to the most expensive urban recovery and rebuilding effort in US history. Federal dollars that now must rebuild the shattered coast are no longer available to fund daycare centers, school lunch programs, Medicaid or nursing research. People fleeing from the Gulf coast evacuated to communities throughout the United States. On arrival in places such as Atlanta and Houston, they needed health services and replacement of essential prescription drugs-and most had no health records or insurance information .. . documents that would normally be essential."
