ABSTRACT

The emergency response capacity of major emergencies at the grass-roots level includes both potential emergency response capacity elements and emergency response capacity realization mechanisms. The emergency response capability realization mechanism is not only the mechanism for potential emergency response capability elements to be transformed into real emergency response capability, but also the environmental conditions and institutional guarantee for the formation of emergency response capability. In the formation process of emergency response capacity for major emergencies at the grassroots level, potential emergency response capacity elements, emergency response capacity realization mechanism and real emergency response capacity elements interact and influence each other to form a complete emergency response capacity. Therefore, this study will start from the analysis of the role of emergency response capacity realization mechanism on the transformation of potential emergency response capacity into real emergency response capacity, and explain the mechanism of emergency response capacity formation in major emergencies at the grassroots level.
