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.

Автор: Kumar Vikas, Malhotra Geetika Название: Stakeholder Strategies for Reducing the Impact of Global Health Crises ISBN: 1799874958 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781799874959 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 206970.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: A global health crisis creates great uncertainty, high stress, and anxiety within society. During such a crisis, when information is unavailable or inconsistent, and when people feel unsure of what they know or what anyone knows, behavioral science indicates an increased human desire for transparency, direction, and meaning of what has happened.
At such a time, the roles of stakeholders that emerge with their words and actions can help keep people safe, help them cope with emotions, and ultimately bring their experience into context leading to meaningful results. But as this crisis shifts beyond public health and workplace safety, there are implications for business continuity, job loss, and radically different ways of working.
While some may already seek meaning from the crisis and move towards the ""next normal,"" others feel a growing uncertainty and are worried about the future. Therefore, it is important to analyze the role of stakeholders during these uncertain times.
Stakeholder Strategies for Reducing the Impact of Global Health Crises provides a comprehensive resource on stakeholder action and strategies to deal with crises by analyzing the needs of society during global health crises, how stakeholders should communicate, and how resilience and peace can be promoted in times of chaos.
The chapters cover the roles of stakeholders during a pandemic spanning from the government and international development agencies to industry and non-government organizations, community-based organizations, and more. This book not only highlights the responsibilities of each of the stakeholders but also showcases the best practices seen during the COVID-19 pandemic through existing theories and case studies.
This book is intended for researchers in the fields of sociology, political science, public administration, mass media and communication, crisis and disaster management, and more, along with government officials, policymakers, medical agencies, executives, managers, medical professionals, practitioners, stakeholders, academicians, and students interested in the role of stakeholders during global health crises.

In the wake of 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, many are asking what, if anything, can be done to prevent large-scale disasters. How is it that we know more about the hazards of modern American life than ever before, yet the nation faces ever-increasing losses from such events? History shows that disasters are not simply random acts. Where is the logic in creating an elaborate set of fire codes for buildings, and then allowing structures like the Twin Towers—tall, impressive, and risky—to go up as design experiments? Why prepare for terrorist attacks above all else when floods, fires, and earthquakes pose far more consistent threats to American life and prosperity? The Disaster Experts takes on these questions, offering historical context for understanding who the experts are that influence these decisions, how they became powerful, and why they are only slightly closer today than a decade ago to protecting the public from disasters. Tracing the intertwined development of disaster expertise, public policy, and urbanization over the past century, historian Scott Gabriel Knowles tells the fascinating story of how this diverse collection of professionals—insurance inspectors, engineers, scientists, journalists, public officials, civil defense planners, and emergency managers—emerged as the authorities on risk and disaster and, in the process, shaped modern America.

Описание: This book showcases research in disaster response in Southeast Asia of particular interest for those studying disaster and mental health, and for providers of mental health and psychosocial support. Contributors cover topics ranging from resistance to disasters to resilience and recovery interventions.
When natural disasters and emergencies strike, the short- and long-term effects of these events on first responders—the very people society relies upon in the midst of a catastrophe—are often overlooked. Policing in Natural Disasters provides a comprehensive analysis of the major challenges faced by law enforcement officers during extreme crisis events. Terri Adams and Leigh Anderson examine the dilemmas police departments face as well as the impact of the disasters on the professional and personal lives of the officers. Case studies explore the response and recovery phases of emergencies including Hurricane Katrina, the 2010 earthquake and subsequent tsunami in Santiago, Chile, and the Superstorm Tornado Outbreak in 2011.
Policing in Natural Disasters was inspired by the personal accounts of triumph and tragedy shared by first responders. It provides an understanding of first-responder behaviors during disasters, as well as the preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery policy implications for first responders and emergency managers. As first responders must frequently cope with stress, uncertainty, and threats to their health and safety during high-consequence events, Adams and Anderson provide lessons from first-hand experiences of police officers that can lead to better management in times of crisis.
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.
