involved in an on-going dialogue with other central government authorities,
municipalities, the Region Skåne (which is the equivalent of the county councils

The Swedish crisis management system
•A new system since 1 July 2002
•Background:
Shift from preparedness for war to
preparedness for peacetime crises.
- The Swedish crisis management system
Guiding principles
The principle of responsibility
The principle of responsibility means that whoever is responsible for an
activity in normal conditions should assume corresponding responsibility
in crisis or war situations.
The principle of parity
The principle of parity means that during a crisis or war authorities
should as much as possible be organized and located as in peacetime.
The principle of proximity
The principle of proximity means that crises should be dealt with at the
lowest possible level.
Crisis management –
”bottom up” perspective
The capability is built from
underneath. Only when the
local level can’t manage the
crisis, the regional and
national level support the
municipalities.

Risk analysis and Vulnerability analysis
Risk analysis
Focus on probability and consequences. Answers the questions:
1. What can happen?
2. What is the probability of the event?
3. Which are the possible consequences?
Vulnerability analysis
Focus on vulnerability – how big and how serious the effect is on a
given system if it is exposed to a negative event. The extent of the
vulnerability is affected by the capacity of the system to foresee,
manage, withstand and recover from the event.
That is – the vulnerability analysis assess the crisis management
capacity of the system.
