The difference between slope failure and slope failure disaster is defined by the description that the causes lie and how slope disaster may be characterized. Failure of a road-cut slope is introduced as a typical example of a slope disaster and collapse of a rock mass as an example showing the periodicity of slope disaster, and the characteristics of such periodicity are considered. This paper deals with the relationship between slope disaster and Quaternary research, and proposes ways in which research should contribute to reducing disaster. It is concluded that a new approach is necessary in the search for a harmonious relationship between humankind and nature because the benefits pursued through current forms of development, if they are continued, will lead to increase incidence of slope disaster, resulting in gigantic construction costs.
