In less than a decade, Europe has witnessed a series of large-scale
natural disasters and two major terrorist attacks. Growing concern
about the trans-national effects of these incidents has caused the
EU Member States to seek more multilateral cooperation. As a
result, a system of common arrangements for handling large-scale
emergencies or disasters has emerged, which, due to its quick and
ad-hoc development, may seem almost impenetrable to newcomers to
the field. This book seeks to provide a much-needed overview of
disaster and crisis management systems in the EU. It provides a
basic understanding of how EU policy has evolved, the EU's mandate,
and above all, a concise and hands-on description of the most
central crisis management arrangements. Written by some of Europe's
main experts and consultants in the field, this book represents a
unique and comprehensive source of information for everyone
involved or interested in the European Union crisis management
system. "This book will quickly become an indispensable resource
for two groups: Practitioners will enjoy its accessible and
comprehensive style. Academics curious about this emerging field
will turn to it for an introductory overview. As someone who
closely studies this field, I find the book engaging, detailed, and
accurate, and I read every line with great interest. The authors
are to be commended for the quality of research that went into this
work." Mark Rhinard, Senior Research Fellow at the Swedish
Institute of International Affairs (UI)
