Abstract
Description
The notion of role conflict and its consequences in emergencies introduces a problem in conceptualization and empirical documentation. It is also a problem in the sociology of knowledge and in the sociology of science as to how both facts and interpretations develop truth value in the scientific and policy communities. Much of this paper relates to the first issue and only incidental attention is given to the second.
