  • FEMA and Disaster: a Look at What Worked and What Didn't from a FEMA Insider (1993 - 2000) Leo Bosner
    The Federal Emergency Management Agency - FEMA - became an object of derision as it appeared to sit by helplessly as thousands suffered and died in the wake of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. But many have forgotten that FEMA responded quickly and effectively to countless emergencies and dis- asters during the 1990s. Earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, the Oklahoma City Bombing, all saw a swift response from FEMA, a sharp contrast to FEMA's performance after Hurricane Katrina. Leo Bosner worked at FEMA for nearly 30 years, from the time of the agency's establishment in 1979 until his retirement in 2008. I have known Leo for 21 years and really appreciated the work he did inside the bureaucracy, often at the risk of his own job, to make this vital agency work. We are lucky to have someone with so much experience let us in on how FEMA worked or didn't work through five presidents. In this four-part Solutions series, Bosner traces the development of FEMA during those years and offers his observations as to why a government agency like FEMA would perform so well one time and so poorly the next ... and his ideas on the key factors that can lead FEMA to success in the future. Leo Bosner was an employee of FEMA from 1979 until his retirement in 2008 and at the time of his re- tirement was president of the FEMA Headquarters employees' union, AFGE Local 4060. The views ex- pressed here are Mr. Bosner's personal views only. -Dina Rasor, Solutions editor On April 19, 1995, at a few minutes past nine in the morning local time, terrorists exploded a deadly bomb in front of the Alfred P.

  • The Historical Context of Emergency Management
    1 The Historical Context of Emergency Management What You Will Learn • The early roots of emergency management. • The modern history of emergency management in the United States. • How FEMA came to exist, and how it evolved during the 1980s, 1990s, and the early twenty-first century. • The sudden changes to modern emergency management that have resulted from the September 11 terrorist attacks and Hurricane Katrina. Introduction Emergency management has ancient roots. Early hieroglyphics depict cavemen trying to deal with disasters. The Bible speaks of the many disasters that befell civilizations. In fact, the account of Moses parting the Red Sea could be interpreted as the first attempt at flood control. As long as there have been disasters, individuals and communities have tried to do something about them; however, organized attempts at dealing with disasters did not occur until much later in modern history. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the cultural, organizational, and leg- islative history of modern emergency management in the United States. Some of the significant events and people that shaped the emergency management discipline over the years are reviewed. Understanding the history and evolution of emergency man- agement is important because, at different times, the concepts of emergency manage- ment have been applied differently. The definition of emergency management can be extremely broad and all-encompassing. Unlike other more structured disciplines, it has expanded and contracted in response to events, congressional desires, and leadership styles. In the most recent history, events and leadership, more than anything else, have brought about dramatic changes to emergency management in the United States.

  • The 2005 Hurricane Katrina Response Failure
    The 2005 Hurricane Katrina response failure The 2005 Hurricane The 2005 Hurricane Katrina response failure Seeing preparedness for foreseeable complex problems Katrina response failure through a neo-institutional lens History is rife with cases where governments fail to manage complex foreseeable problems to the satisfaction of stakeholders. While it might be easy to understand why they struggle to deal with the novel or unforeseen, it is much more puzzling where governments fail to meet widely recognized and deeply understood threats. This study, Seeing preparedness for foreseeable complex which examines the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s, FEMA’s, capacity to manage the very foreseeable hurricane threat using an institutional perspective on problems through a neo-institutional lens preparedness, aims to explain why this is so often the case. This study shows that complex systems of government create deep interdependen- cies that pose major challenges to multi-level interagency coordination in dealing with problems, even those that are foreseeable. When viewed through a neo-institutional lens, the case reveals the role that norms, rules, routines, values, and individual interests played in determining how FEMA responded to major change in the institutional Christer Brown environment and what implications this had for the agency’s preparedness for hurri- canes. We also see that the apparent deterioration of FEMA’s preparedness ahead of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 was as much a result of elite over-attentiveness to terrorism as it was FEMA’s own resistance to change. This served to weaken the agency’s ability to garner political support and its readiness to partner with other stakeholders.
