Review

This paper addresses a highly relevant and critical topic concerning the long-term socio-economic impacts of major disasters, specifically focusing on the Lapindo mudflow in Sidoarjo, Indonesia. The choice of the Lapindo disaster, nearly two decades after its initial occurrence, offers a valuable opportunity to examine sustained changes and recovery efforts. By concentrating on the Tanggulangin craft center, known for its leather goods, the research provides a focused lens on how a specific local economy and its community adapt and respond to prolonged environmental and economic disruption. The paper aims to shed light on the multifaceted challenges faced by communities in disaster-prone regions and their subsequent pathways to recovery. The abstract outlines two main areas that appear to be central to the research's inquiry and findings. Firstly, it asserts that the Lapindo mudflow significantly debilitated the economy of Sidoarjo, particularly impacting the prominent leather craft industry in Tanggulangin. This focus on a key economic sector allows for an in-depth understanding of the direct and indirect economic consequences of the disaster on specific livelihoods. Secondly, and critically, the paper appears to explore the resilience and recovery efforts of local entrepreneurs. It suggests that despite initial setbacks and a worsening economic situation, business owners in the bag and luggage crafts industry have demonstrated a capacity to recover and rebuild, indicating a process of adaptation and reconstruction that supports the livelihoods of many in the community. While the abstract clearly establishes the significance and scope of the research, it would benefit from providing more insight into the methodology employed. Details regarding the data collection techniques (e.g., qualitative interviews, quantitative surveys, archival analysis), the specific sample population studied, and the theoretical framework guiding the analysis would significantly strengthen the paper's contribution. For instance, the "rise and rebuild" aspect could be further substantiated with specific examples of strategies, economic indicators, or social support mechanisms that facilitated this recovery. Addressing these areas in the full manuscript would allow the paper to contribute more robustly to the literature on disaster recovery, socio-economic resilience, and local economic development in post-disaster contexts.
