Abstract

To minimize the damage caused by natural and social disasters, the government will come up with a reform of the existing disaster safety management system. Establishing an organic system of cooperation between police, firefighting, and local governments to enhance the on-site response will be in the central issue of the reform. Furthermore, the rapid changes in security environment and the increased possibility of uncertain large disasters make it necessary to systematically enhance police activities at each stage of crisis management. In addition, a leadership approach centered on police activities and police management capabilities will be crucial for successful crisis management. By examining the crisis management system in the U.S. and Germany, this paper draws implications for the role of police in the crisis management system in South Korea and claims that cooperative police leadership is essential for that system. Moreover, this paper provides with a list of capabilities necessary for police activities in crisis management as a basis for the future development of police capabilities model for crisis management.
