Jr.  aThe fiscal risk of all-hazards emergency management or the political hazards in rational policy  c1999  ap.611-36  aMay  aThe professionalization of emergency management and the adoption of all-hazards policies mean fundamental changes in agency constituencies and budgetary politics. Professionalization can increase the distance between emergency managers and the public they serve, expand the need for scientific and technical knowledge among generalist administrators, and fragment the disaster community. The more "rational" approach to disaster policy may well alienate the supporters of disaster-specific programs. Fiscal risk may result, particularly at the state and local levels where there are fewer opportunities to secure funding and to cultivate political support. - Reproduced  aDisaster prevention  aInternational Journal of Public Administration
