Study On The Coordination Between Grass-roots Government And Social Organization In Natural Disaster Emergency Management

Natural disaster relief is fundamentally different from other disaster relief due to its natural nature.The interests of the government and the multi-social subjects are the same in the face of natural disaster,which has become an important basis for the cooperation between government and society.The government’s emergency management capacity is subject to more complex environmental challenges in the run-up to one natural disaster after another,and disaster management is receiving increasing public attention.With the modernization of social governance and the awakening of citizen consciousness,the disaster management ability of the government is more and more required.In recent years,the research on natural disaster management mainly focuses on whether the government can effectively deal with the sudden natural disaster and whether it can reduce the loss of life and property by strengthening its disaster management ability.As the main body of traditional governance,the government enjoys the power of allocating social resources and plays a major role in disaster management.However,in the face of long-term,uncertain and comprehensive natural disasters,the seemingly "omnipotent" government is still unable to cope with them.Social organizations,due to their agility,flexibility and professionalism in disaster response,can become partners of the government in natural disaster management,helping to make up for deficiencies.Based on the above background,this paper summarizes the research of domestic and foreign scholars,sorts out the shortcomings of the existing research,and believes that there is still a large space for research on the collaborative governance mechanism between grassroots government and social organizations.Based on the theories of collaborative governance,Kirk Emerson’s comprehensive analysis framework of collaborative governance is introduced to demonstrate its applicability in the governance context with Chinese characteristics.After that,the author chose a natural disaster case of Fu Ning "Jun.23 Storm disaster",which was managed by grassroots government and social organizations,for research.According to Emerson’s comprehensive analysis framework,this paper analyzes the practice of the coordination of natural disaster emergency management from the three dimensions of the external environment,driving factors and collaborative power of the two collaborative governance,combined with China’s characteristics and national conditions.It is found that there are still some problems in the coordinated management of Fu Ning "Jun.23 wind disaster",such as imperfect information exchange mechanism,alienated partnership and insufficient joint action capacity.It is pointed out that the reasons for these problems lie in unfavorable external environment,insufficient driving factors and weak synergistic power.On this basis,the optimization path is put forward,including the legalization of collaborative governance,the pre-implementation of collaborative action,the improvement of policy support,and the clarification of collaborative motivation.Through the study of this paper,we hope to improve the coordinated action ability of grassroots government and social organizations in natural disaster emergency management,and then improve the efficiency of natural disaster management in China.
