Human settlements are formed and developed in a specific natural environment, while the social, political, cultural, economic, and other systems and structures governing societies also affect the residential spaces as another pillar. Therefore, special natural and human environments create specific geographic spaces that require their own special management system. After the earthquake on November 12, 2017, with its epicenter in Azgeleh, the existence of natural grounds in the county of Salas-e Babajani caused crisis management in this area to face special challenges. In addition, the centralized and sectional management structure governing the country and consequently Salas-e Babajani exacerbated these problems and created a deep crisis for the residents of this area. Accordingly, the present study aims to study the spatial pathology of crisis management in urban and rural settlements in Salas-e Babajani. This research is applied in terms of its objective and descriptive-analytical in terms of its methodology. Data were collected through two documentary and survey methods. The statistical population of the present study consists of two parts; the first part consists of experts and some officials of Salas-e Babajani. Selective sampling method was used, and its size is considered to be scientific saturation. The second part includes residents and citizens of Salas-e Babajani. The findings showed that crisis management in Salas-e Babajani has a high adaptation with the centralized and sectional management pattern. In addition, it was found that crisis management indicators in the four stages (prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery) are in an undesirable situation. Among the components of the crisis management cycle, the greatest weakness is related to the prevention area, and the least weakness is related to the preparedness stage. In general, the results showed that by moving away from the center of the city towards the outskirts, especially towards the southwest borders of the city, crisis management indicators are in a worse situation. In other words, by distancing from the political center of the city, i.e., Tazehabad, the situation of crisis management indicators becomes very undesirable. The findings also showed that crisis management in Salas-e Babajani has been greatly influenced by the natural environment (altitude, climate, precipitation, temperature, rivers, slope of the land, faults) and the human environment (economic, service, social capital, cultural, transportation, distribution of human settlements, population of human settlements). In summary, it should be noted that each specific geographic space requires a specific crisis management mechanism.
