A Futurist's Guide to Emergency Management provides interdisciplinary analysis on how particular sets of conditions may occur in the future by evaluating global trends, possible scenarios, emerging conditions, and various other elements of risk management. Firmly based in science, the book leverages historical data, current best practices, and scientific and statistical data to make future projections to help emergency management, homeland security, and public safety officials make appropriate planning, preparedness, and resource management decisions in the present to prepare for future conditions and risks.
Focuses on trends in citizen behaviors, expectations, and choices related to technology, media, communication, and cross-cultural behavior
Reflects the impacts of age, gender, and sexuality roles on emergency response expectations as well as the increasing politicization of disaster response and recovery activities
Evaluates how perceptions of risk are changing--particularly in light of low probability, but high consequence events
Considers emerging physical, social, environmental, and technological issues such as climate change, sustainability, globalization, and cyber threats
Divided into three sections, the book first focuses on trends in citizen behaviors, expectations, and choices related to technology, media, communication and cross-cultural behavior. It then explores the impacts of age, gender, and sexuality roles on emergency response expectations as well as the increasing politicization of disaster response and recovery activities. Additionally, the second section evaluates how perceptions of risk are changing - particularly in light of low probability, but high consequence events. The book concludes with coverage of emerging physical, social, environmental, and technological issues such a climate change, sustainability, globalization, and cyber threats.

Описание: New patterns in globalization, economic integration, migration, conflict, and human displacement have contributed to the rapid diversification of numerous communities throughout the world. Dramatic population shifts are occurring both in large urban areas and in rural communities. These changes presents unique challenges and opportunities for law enforcement, public safety, and homeland security organizations during emergencies, disasters, and humanitarian crises. Written by two nationally recognized subject matter experts in this field, Tactical Anthropology presents a step-by-step introduction to why populations around the world are changing so quickly and outlines the implications of these changes for first responders. Unlike most texts in this field, this book offers concise training on the main cross-cultural tactics, techniques, and procedures needed by emergency workers and public safety professionals to work with multicultural populations before, during, and after crises situations in a practical manner. Key features include: Overview of Tactical Anthropology and the role that culture plays in communities and the implications for first responders. The role of Tactical Anthropology "on the job" in a variety of first response professions allowing readers better understand how this important skill set is utilized in the field. Description of the skills needed to become competent in the Tactical Anthropology field, with an explanation of strategies and procedures to work more effectively in multicultural communities. Resources and referrals to agencies, organizations, websites, tools, and other sources of subject matter expertise for further exploration. Tactical Anthropology is the go-to training manual and field guide for first response professionals and students. It represents a valuable contribution on the use of social and cultural intelligence (SOCINT) and will undoubtedly stimulate dialogue in the fields of emergency management, law enforcement, public safety, homeland security, disaster response, firefighting, humanitarian aid, the military, public health, applied anthropology, emergency medicine, and related fields.

Название: Criteria for Use in Preparedness and Response for a Nuclear or Radiological Emergency ISBN: 9201074107 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789201074102 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 37890.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Presents a coherent set of generic criteria (expressed numerically in terms of radiation dose) that form a basis for developing the operational levels needed for decision making concerning protective and response actions.
Disaster management is generally understood to consist of four phases: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. While these phases are all important and interrelated, response and recovery are often considered to be the most critical in terms of saving lives. Response is the acute phase occurring after the event, and includes all arrangements to remove detriments and a long-term inventory of supplies to deal with irreversible damage. The timely provision of geospatial information is crucial in the decision-making process, and can save lives and rescue citizens.
The aim of this volume is to share technological advances that allow wider, faster and more effective utilization of geospatial information in emergency response situations. The volume describes current accomplishments and challenges in providing geospatial information with these attributes, and is organized in six parts:
- Practice and legislation, with a focus on the utilization of geospatial information in recent disaster events, as well as resulting legislative attempts to share and access data.
- Data collection and data products.
- Data management and routing in 3D.
- Emerging technologies, including positioning, virtual reality and simulation models.
- Integration of heterogeneous data.
- Applications and solutions.
This volume is aimed at researchers, practitioners and students who work in the variety of disciplines related to geospatial information technology for emergency response, and represents the very best of current thinking from a number of pioneering studies over the past four years.

Описание: The newly updated edition of Emergency Management: The American Experience continues the tradition of all previous editions: a succinct yet comprehensive teaching and learning textbook to understand the essential political and policy underpinnings of emergency management in the United States.
Principles of Emergency Management: Hazard Specific Issues and Mitigation offers preparedness and mitigation recommendations for advanced emergency planning. Because disasters are so unpredictable, advance planning is needed to effectively respond to and mitigate against the potential effects of such events.
Whether a disaster is natural or man-made, accidental or deliberate, the best way to protect the public is by implementing an integrated emergency management system incorporating all potential stakeholders through all phases of the event. As such, the book suggests best practices for drills, exercises, and pre-event team building and communication.
More than a dozen contributors offer their professional expertise on a wide variety of topics, including:
Emergency operations center management
Continuity planning of vital services in the aftermath of a disaster
The role of the public health official
Developing public-private partnerships
Specific types of disasters, including terrorism, agroterrorism, pandemics, and active shooter incidents
Mass care, sheltering, and human services
The special needs of children in disasters
Traditional and social media and their impact on emergency management
The book is a valuable planning resource for those tasked with managing operations to prepare for, mitigate, and respond to disasters.
