The EU and its member states have committed themselves to the protection of their citizens, and a Europe that protects must be able to respond effectively when disaster strikes.
Utilizing unique survey data and interviews in nineteen EU member states, this book treats civil protection and crisis management as crucial cases for investigating which factors — such as trust, public-administration culture, and public-administration structure — facilitate or hinder effective EU cooperation. In addition to investigating the main divides and unifying patterns of cooperation that exist among the EU member states, the authors combine knowledge from crisis management studies together with insights from public and social capital studies to examine to what extent so-called "software factors", such as culture, trust, and norms, matter for achieving effective civil protection cooperation and crisis management. - Discusses EU civil protection cooperation as a crucial case for investigating which factors facilitate or hinder effective EU action in the quest to protect its citizens. - Generates new empirical evidence on the actual functioning of EU civil protection cooperation from interviews and a survey of 670 officials working with civil protection in seventeen member states. - Analyses EU civil protection cooperation through the prisms of administrative culture and social capital and provides evidence on the effectiveness and legitimacy of the EU’s efforts in this area.
