Med nya ögon mot stormen : Krisberedskap, ansvar och lärande ur ett medborgarperspektiv.

<p>The aim of this essay is, due to a noted lack of earlier research together with an even more accentuated responsibility regarding the matter in question, to study the citizens’ preparedness for crisis. Starting out from a number of questions regarding the citizens’ responsibility and</p><p>learning from the hurricanes Gudrun and Per, the discussion concerns the terminology of</p><p>crisis together with the question of responsibility and learning from experience.</p><p>In conclusion, the source material consisting of nine interviews shows that preparedness for crisis for the affected citizen above all is related to the personal measures to create a working situation in a state of crisis. Hence, to a great extent, the citizens show consciousness</p><p>of their own responsibility. Regarding the question of learning from these specific crises, this can only be noted among those citizens that lack earlier experience from crisis.</p>
