Descrição: Natural disasters such as Katrina are enormous, complex events that affect huge geographic areas and millions of people. It is extremely difficult for any organization, public or private, to deal with the diverse problems they cause. Nevertheless, governmental disaster response efforts usually work quite well (Schneider 1995). Therefore, it is important to determine why the system failed after Katrina's onslaught. It is too early, of course, to produce any definitive answers. But it does appear that some of the major problems encountered during the response to Katrina stemmed from breakdowns in the administrative elements of the governmental emergency management system. Effective bureaucratic agencies are characterized by well-established procedures, effective leadership, and clear objectives. An early assessment suggests that problems associated with all three of these bureaucratic characteristics weakened governmental efforts to respond quickly and effectively.
