In recent decades, challenges stemming from both human-made and natural disasters have become increasingly serious with the coming of a risk society. Traditionally, one function of the government, particularly local governments, has been to deal with disaster to secure citizens, making it inevitable for the government to operate based on bureaucratic norms and hierarchical command systems. It is important and critical for governments, facing the new and transformational challenges of disasters, to adopt alternatives to improve their capacity to cope with disasters in the new age. |
