Krisen-Governance im europäischen Vergleich

Overview & Synopsis

The book presents a comparative analysis of crisis governance in France, the United Kingdom (England), Sweden, Poland, and Germany, using the example of the COVID-19 pandemic. It particularly focuses on the role of municipalities as resilience-promoting institutions and their coordination with higher administrative levels. It explores the influence of different administrative cultural contexts on the institutional design of crisis governance and administrative actions during the COVID-19 crisis. Finally, some lessons for more resilient governance structures in crisis situations are derived from the comparative analysis.
