Gränser i öppna landskap : en studie i samverkanspotential mellan Försvarsmakten och centrala myndigheter vid svåra påfrestningar i fred

Denna uppsats har varit inriktad på att studera Försvarsmakten och centrala myndigheters samverkanvid svåra påfrestningar i fred. Problembakgrunden återfinns i sårbarhets - och säkerhetsutredningen.Utredningen gör bl a gällande att samverkanspotentialen ej är fullt utnyttjad mellan militära och civilamyndigheter. Tyngdpunkten i uppsatsens problemformulering omfattas av hur dennasamverkanspotential i positiv riktning kan förändras.Studien har strukturerats med hjälp av fem funktioner för ledningsförmåga; personal, organisation,doktrin, styrmedel samt teknik. Utifrån dessa funktioner har samverkanspotentialen analyserats.Analysen visar att det finns ett antal faktorer som är avgörande för en god samverkanspotential. Dessafaktorer kan summeras med; öka förståelsen för varandras verksamheter, tydliggöraansvarsfördelningen, skapa positiv vilja och attityd till samverkan, fördjupa personell ochorganisatorisk kunskap i gällande lagrum, förstärka möjligheterna till samverkan genom gemensamtledningssystem.During the last years, the question of the national ability to handle a seriouscrisis situation has arisen. In the governmental official reports, the need of anoverall view is emphasised because catastrophes can affect many publicfunctions. Central authorities play an important role in this case. During 1999,the government initiated an official report to analyse how a better overall viewcould be reached. Vulnerability and security aspects were examined. The reportshows that the military force could contribute with important efforts and thatthe co-operation ability between military and civilian authorities could begreatly improved.The purpose of this paper is to describe how the co-operation abilitybetween military and civilian authorities could be developed. The paper isintended to respond to the following questions:- What prerequisites and abilities are desirable in order to co-operatebetween military and central authorities from a national crisis point ofview?- What can change the co-operation ability between military and civilianactivities in a national crisis situation in a positive way?This paper uses the qualitative method because the authorities’ teamworkshould be reflected from an overall point of view and the co-operation ability ishard to measure.The overall point of view is central.The source material for the empirical studies is collected from interviews ofpersons in authority.The theoretical model concerns the ability to command and control. Themodel consists of the following elements; personnel, organization, doctrine,instruments of control and finally technique. To achieve co-operation interplayis required between these elements.In support of these empirical studies, the following conclusions of how tochange the co-operation ability between military and civilian authorities couldbe presented:- PersonnelJoint practice and instruction to produce a common understanding for thedifferent kinds of activity- OrganizationElucidate the authorities’ responsibility in a crisis situation- DoctrineStimulate the authorities’ will and attitude to co-operation- Instrument of controlDeeper personnel and organizational knowledge of existing legislation- TechniquesDevelopment of joint command and control systemsThe information above could be used to further develop co-operation abilitybetween military and civilian authorities in crisis situations.Avdelning: ALB - Slutet Mag 3 C-upps.Hylla: Upps.
