Collaborative Crisis Management

Public organizations are increasingly expected to cope with crisis under the same resource constraints and mandates that make up their normal routines, reinforced only through collaboration. Collaborative Crisis Management introduces readers to how collaboration shapes societies capacity to plan for, respond to, and recover from extreme and unscheduled events.

Placing emphasis on five conceptual dimensions, this book teaches students how this panacea works out on the ground and in the boardrooms, and how insights on collaborative practices can shed light on the outcomes of complex inter-organizational challenges across cases derived from different problem areas, administrative cultures, and national systems. Written in a concise, accessible style by experienced teachers and scholars, it places modes of collaboration under an analytical microscope by assessing not only the collaborative tools available to actors but also how they are used, to what effect, and with which adaptive capacity. Ten empirical chapters span different international cases and contexts discussing:

• Natural and man-made hazards: earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires, terrorism, migration flows, and violent protests
• Different examples of collaborative institutions, such as regional economic communities in Africa, and multi-level arrangements in Canada, the Netherlands, Turkey, and Switzerland
• Application of a multimethod approach, including single case studies, comparative case studies, process-tracing, and large-n designs.

Collaborative Crisis Management is essential reading for those involved in researching and teaching crisis management.

Fredrik Bynander is Director of the Center for Societal Security and Chairman of the Board of the Center of Natural Hazards and Disaster Science (CNDS). Prior to this appointment, Fredrik was head of strategic planning at the Prime Ministers Office Secretariat for Crisis Coordination. His current research interests include crisis management studies, leadership succession, and foreign policy analysis. Fredrik is a member of the Royal Academy of War Sciences and the Swedish Society for International Affairs.

Daniel Nohrstedt is Associate Professor of Political Science at Uppsala University, Sweden. He studies processes of inter-organizational collaboration, learning, change, and performance in the context of crisis management and natural hazards planning. His other research interests include policy process theory (particularly the Advocacy Coalition Framework), governance, policy network theory, and collaborative public management.

Crisis collaboration across geographical and administrative borders is a must. It is also extremely hard. Under the guidance of Bynander and Nohrstedt, crisis experts pursue the Holy Grail of crisis collaboration in an exciting set of case studies. Extremely relevant for both academics and practitioners. A welcome addition to the crisis literature!

Collaborative Crisis Management addresses collective action dilemma in response to major crises and disasters such as terrorism, wildfires, and earthquakes in different geographies, cultures, and political and administrative settings. This timely volume provides conceptually and analytically valuable perspectives from experts in the field in applying network governance in dealing with crises and disasters. The volume is an essential resource for both scholars and practitioners.

Emergency management is, above all, a social process. This authoritative book provides a valuable structure for analyzing the participation of people and organizations in crisis response. Its coverage of hazards and geographical areas is broad and eclectic. In responding to disasters and major incidents, collaboration is becoming more and more necessary. Many different agencies are likely to be involved, and hence the inter-organizational perspective brought by the authors of this book is particularly welcome.

Guide

This edited volume comes out of a truly collective effort among colleagues to jointly advance the understanding of collaborative crisis management and how it can be conceptualized and studied in different settings. Most of us have a history of working together in different constellations but some are newfound friends. We are grateful to all of these wonderful colleagues who agreed to devote their valuable time and energy to contribute to this book and for their patience in coping with a seemingly endless stream of deadlines and reminders. We also acknowledge the financial support from several funders, among them the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) and the Swedish research council Formas, which made this collaboration possible.

The Center of Natural Hazards and Disaster Science (CNDS), with which many of us are affiliated, has provided a constructive forum and intellectual engine for this work. The Center for Societal Security at the Swedish Defense University has been the institutional home for many contributors to this book and has served as an important platform for us to meet and discuss this work. A special thanks goes to Publications Manager Stephanie Young for correcting our mistakes and making the manuscript readable and coherent. Nevertheless, responsibility for any remaining errors rests solely with the editors.

We are grateful to Paul t Hart for helping us get going with the project and for being a constructive and sharp commentator along the way. Arjen Boin has been another important discussion partner for many of us throughout this process, and his influence on our thinking is noticeable across many of the chapters. This work has been inspired and influenced by meetings and interactions with many other researchers, students, and practitioners. These conversations have been an important source of ideas and a major inspiration for this book.
