Abstract
Description
Community emergencies provide an opportunity to observe within a short span of time both the development and the results of interorganizational
relations. Recovery from a disaster requires intense activity on the part of many different organizations and brings together many that have had little contact wlth each other before the event. The disaster not only destroys or weakens the normal system of community decision making, but it also makes urgent the establishment of a new basis for unity.
