Disaster is an objective natural and social phenomena, to a certain level of social productive forces is not completely avoided disaster. Therefore, the history of the development of human society is a difficult history of disaster resistance. Whether or from primitive society to an agricultural society, the impact of disasters on human society greatly, forming a number of shocking disaster. Especially since the industrial revolution, with the economic development, population growth, technological progress, human nature and the increasing influence, though some of the traditional natural disasters gradually brought under control, but more and more modern types of disasters, disaster losses increasingly larger, more and more disasters, even as global warming, water depletion, nuclear war and other disasters can cause the destruction of Earth's civilization. Thus, disasters on sustainable development of human society and the growing threat of severe circumstances, have led the world to take concerted action to reduce and eliminate hazards. China is the world's worst natural disasters in one of the few countries, all kinds of man-made disasters also showed the trend of deterioration, frequent natural disasters Yi as China's economy sound and fast development impact of the outstanding problems. Therefore, the study disasters, has important practical significance.Currently, academic research on disaster reduction issues:First, focus on the causes of disasters and other technical aspects of the mechanism and prevention and control studies involving more than productivity, and economic and social factors on the disaster, the institutional mechanisms for disaster reduction and human behavior related to mental habits relations of production less on the disaster itself, "what", "Why," "how" and mitigation products "what" and study more, but for the reduction products "who provide", "how to provide," "provide The most suitable number of "back-end issues such as very little research. The second is basically in the decentralized, the professional point of view (such as water, earthquake, agriculture and other departments) of the situation, lack of disasters systematic theoretical and empirical research.In this paper, disaster science, public economics, political economy theory, from the reduction of the productive forces and production relations perspective, focus on mitigation products under a certain level of productivity, "who provide", "how to provide", "provide a reasonable number of three realities problems, disasters and hazards through innovative and effective demand, supply and other concepts of disaster reduction into the private product products, mixed products, three types of public goods, building supply and demand reduction equilibrium model, clear the government, market, private and voluntary organizations,4 Class of supply of the main inputs in the reduction division of responsibilities, and proposed mitigation projects, industrialization, social and institutional reality of the path, the further sum up the experience abroad and in our reduction, less than, Finally, in the existing social productivity level, proposed China to further promote the cause of the development of disaster prevention and mitigation measures proposed to achieve the reduction by adjusting the relations of production to maximize the mitigation capacity to inspire and effect.
