Under immense pressure, they must grapple with a multitude of difficult decisions: whether to adhere to pre-established plans or improvise; whether to follow top-down instructions or exercise discretionary actions; and whether to become emotionally invested or maintain a rational distance. These dilemmas constitute the very essence of their work, yet they have largely gone unexamined until now. This book embarks on an in-depth exploration of eleven such dilemmas by integrating a diverse range of research findings on crisis response operations. The comprehensive overview of crisis response research sheds light on how frontline responders navigate these complex dilemmas amidst the chaos of crises, laying the foundation for the development of a theoretical framework for frontline crisis response. As such, this book holds immense potential to enhance our understanding, evaluation, and advancement of crisis response operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 406g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781009262187\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jori P.Kalkman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44642008989946,"sku":"9781009262187","price":21.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697218400364_book.jpg?v=1697484026","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/frontline-crisis-response-operational-dilemmas-in-emergency-services-armed-forces-and-humanitarian-organizations-9781009262187","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
