Crisis Situations

In the past, the main task of the Armed Forces was primarily to ensure military security in terms of defense of independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of the state. However, nowadays, in the national and international dimension, their scope of tasks has been expanded to include projects in the field of supporting public administration bodies and society in crisis situations. That is due to the fact that the Armed Forces have unique, unprecedented in other response forces, opportunities to take effective action in the event of various crises. Thus, they have become an important enhancement of the crisis management system and civil protection. They can often constitute the main element of support for public administration bodies (central and local government) in solving emerging crisis situations. An important factor in the effectiveness of their actions in helping the society is the so-called crisis management system in the Ministry of National Defense. The structure of this system is closely related to the functioning control and command system.

Command And Control System

This article seeks to examine the development of the ROK-U.S. combined command and control system and crisis management procedures in South Korea. In particular, it explores the four crises which occurred between 1968 and 1999 in order to identify its implications for the ROK-U.S. combined crisis management. During a crisis, command and control over the armed forces are critical issues, in order to co-ordinate military movements and alert operations in the context of overall crisis objectives. Within the ROK-U.S. alliance, the ROK command and control chain of armed forces was highly integrated with the command and control chains of the UNC until 1978 and with the CFC from 1978. This CFC combined command structure has enabled the ROK to participate in the chain of operational control of its own forces and to strengthen its position in the ROK-U.S. combined crisis management procedures. Although both co-operated closely to cope with Korean crises in the past, there were some tensions in the use of military force and in the co-ordination of the detailed operational dimension of military operations. However, it can be argued that as long as the ROK crisis objectives and strategy were achieved through a consensus of alliance crisis options, these arrangements provided an effective crisis management system for ROK to resolve Korean crises. To some extent, the combined crisis management system enabled ROK to use America's massive military and intelligence capabilities to deter North Korea and to manage crises effectively. In the face of an era of transition and transformation in the ROK-U.S. alliance relationships following the September 11 2001, the ROK and U.S. need to minimise potential negative effects on combined crisis management system and maintain coherent deterrence capability and alliance stability on the Korean peninsula.

The main task of crisis management consists in resolving the issues related to threat events, which are burdened with risk. Those risks may have different sources and various levels of the probability of their occurrence. The lack of interest in the topic may result in social and economic consequences. For this reason, the new society has created the necessity for a crisis management system and the participation in it of “risk-managers”, specialised in management during crisis situations. The purpose of the article is to present a methodological basis of the process and the decision reached in the circumstances of risk.

Ensuring security is one of the fundamental existential goals of nations. It is among the most important needs of every human being. Without satisfying the need for security, we can hardly speak of the existence, survival, development and ordinary everyday functioning of society. A world full of possibilities and diversity can also be a cruel world, creating a sense of threat. The implementation of state tasks in the field of national security depends, among other things, on effective crisis management. The Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland, as the executive agent of the crisis management system, take an active part in counteracting and combating crisis situations. The purpose of this work is to characterize the crisis management system in Poland, present the legal bases and procedures for the use of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland in crisis situations and analyze the legitimacy and effectiveness of the use of military units and troops in this type of incidents.

In the author's sense, crisis management should cover all subsystems of enterprise management: operational, technical, financial, and, especially, strategic, marketing, personnel. It is recognized that marketing in crisis management is not just one of the subsystems of the enterprise, but the basis that ensures the sustainability of all its other units. Anti-crisis marketing involves the prompt change of all components of marketing in accordance with changes in the environment, which helps to maintain maximum competitiveness of the company in market conditions. In the crisis of the organization or to prevent it, the same marketing tools are used as in stable conditions, but the goals and objectives of marketing activities change, which acquire new specific features, the main of which is the marketing anti-crisis program. The anti-crisis marketing program should ensure the production and sale of such goods that are in steady demand in the market and bring the company's main profit. The mechanism of anti-crisis marketing in the enterprise as a management system involves the presence of the object (crisis phenomena) and the subject of management, the formation of targeted management processes, subsystem monitoring environment and forecasting: determination of the stage, parameters, volumes and scales of the crisis phenomenon, development, implementation and control of anti-crisis strategies, etc.), choice of means and methods of management, creation of a clear system of adjustment and feedback.

The detachments of Territorial Defence Force (TDF, Polish: Wojska Obrony Terytorialnej) are an important element in the new structure of the Polish Army. The article presents the challenges the Territorial Defence Force, a new branch of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland, are currently facing. The author discusses the origin of TDF as well as the basic normative and legal documents that specify the role and tasks of TDF in the national security system. The principles of recruitment to TDF, the basic criteria laid down for candidates for service and a timeline of TDF development in 2016–2019 are described. Particular attention is paid to the cooperation between TDF and operational forces in case of an armed conflict, which poses a serious challenge to the new type of armed forces. Additionally, research suggests that the range of tasks assigned to TDF indicates their significant role within the crisis management system. This requires the TDF command to work closely with public administration and to gain trust and esteem in local communities in the regions of their operation.

Po izbruhu nemirov v Libiji v začetku leta 2011 so v Varnostnem svetu ZN sprejeli resolucijo, ki je zagotovila mandat za mednarodno posredovanje v Libiji. Dva dni po sprejetju resolucije so ameriške, britanske in francoske sile začele operacije za vzpostavitev embarga in območja prepovedi letenja nad Libijo. Konec marca je po- veljevanje in nadzor nad operacijo Združeni zaščitnik prevzel Nato, v njej so sodelo- vale vojaške sile 14 držav članic Nata in 4 partnerskih držav. Operacija je prispevala k zmanjšanju civilnih žrtev spopadov in pomagala opoziciji pri odstranitvi režima Moamerja Gadafija. Operacija Združeni zaščitnik je primer učinkovitega posredovanja Nata v krizi, vendar je tudi opozorila na več težav in pomanjkljivosti glede strategije in glede vojaških zmogljivosti Nata pri izvajanju kriznega menedžmenta. V Natu so se pri obravnavi libijske krize pokazala različna stališča zaveznic, ki so privedla do resnih političnih razprav v zavezništvu. Vendar je bila kljub tem razlikam izvedba operacije mogoča. Operacija je opozorila na znatne pomanjkljivosti na področju vojaških zmogljivosti in na odvisnost evropskih zaveznic od vojaških zmogljivosti ZDA na nekaterih pomembnih področjih. Izkušnje operacije opozarjajo tudi na politična in vojaška vprašanja, s katerimi se bo Nato verjetno srečal ob podobnih operacijah v pri- hodnosti. Med zaveznicami je mogoče pričakovati različna stališča in pristope glede vloge Nata v prihodnjih krizah, kot tudi različno pripravljenost vojaško prispevati k operacijam. Za učinkovit krizni menedžment pa bo potrebno tudi več fleksibilnosti. After the outbreak of civil unrest in Libya at the beginning of 2011, UN Security Council adopted resolution which authorized international intervention in Libya. Two days after the authorization, U.S., British and French forces launched operations to enforce embargo and no-fly zone over Libya. By the end of March NATO, took over command and control of the operation “Unified Protector”, which was conducted by the armed forces of 14 NATO countries and 4 partner countries. The operation reduced the number of civilian casualties in conflict and supported the opposition to overthrow Muammar al-Qaddafi. Operation “Allied Protector” is an example of NATO’s effective intervention in crisis; however it also revealed shortcomings and impediments concerning NATO’s crisis management strategy and military capabilities. NATO’s approach to Libyan crisis demonstrated different positions among allies which resulted in serious political debates. Despite these differences NATO was able to launch the operation. The operation revealed serious deficiencies in military capabilities and European NATO members’ dependency on the U.S. in some key military capabilities. Lessons from operation also point to political and military questions which NATO will probably face in the case of similar operations in the future. Concerning NATO’s role in future crisis, different positions and approaches among allies could be expected as well as different levels of willingness to contribute military to operations. Effective crisis management will also require more flexibility.

Successful management before, during, as well as in the period of recovery from the crisis, is extremely important for reducing the consequences. Like any other type of management, crisis management involves planning, organizing, assigning tasks (command), coordination and control. These activities must be carried out in accordance with regulations, competences and procedures, especially in amorphous, fragmented and large systems such as national logistics. In this paper, the emphasis is placed on the analysis of 63 current regulations and procedures related to the logistical aspect of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The considered documents represent the regulatory basis for the management of the security system and its logistics. The analysis of the existing regulations governing crisis management, and especially the planning process, led to conclusions that indicate a lack of clear division of responsibilities, integrated or coordinated planning, but also the possibility of effective or appropriate preparation and management of necessary resources, which does not contribute much to the system resistance. It was also noticed that modelling and simulations, as modern methods, are not a part of the forecasting process. The current economic situation influences Serbia's strategic orientation to increase reserves and stocks as the main source of supply in crisis situations. The existence of logistical resources and sufficient capacities also influences the choice of an adequate strategy, which was clearly shown in the Serbian case during the epidemic. The paper highlights the positive aspects and makes recommendations that could improve the organization and management of logistical support to crisis situations in Serbia, especially in terms of resilience, but also flexibility.

The paper presents the place of the mines rescue service in the structures of the crisis management system in Poland. The mines rescue service as one of several entities of the rescue system in Poland focuses on helping injured miners and other people trapped underground. The paper mentions existing legal regulations concerning the mines rescue service and other emergency services. An important piece of legislation for members of mines rescue teams, is the ordinance of the Minister of Energy of 16 March 2017 which introduces a number of revolutionary changes such as obligation to deliver qualified first aid and on-the-spot psychological support. In this way the mines rescue service has become more utilitarian and more universal and therefore may be efficiently used for operations in more general crisis situations and even better contribute to the smooth functioning of the state.
