2019冠状病毒病危机是一个鲜明的提醒，现代社会很容易受到一种特殊的麻烦：蔓延的危机。这场逐渐蔓延的危机对学术界和从业者都构成了深刻的挑战。在危机文献中，它仍然定义不清，研究不足。管理起来就更难了。作为一种威胁，它具有破坏社会的潜力，但这种潜力尚未得到充分理解。这些逐渐蔓延的危机的积累可能会削弱公众对机构的信任。本文提出了一个蔓延的危机的定义，制定研究问题，并确定最相关的理论方法。它为系统研究逐渐蔓延的危机提供了基础。
The COVID-19 crisis is a stark reminder that modern society is vulnerable to a special species of trouble: the creeping crisis. The creeping crisis poses a deep challenge to both academics and practitioners. In the crisis literature, it remains ill-defined and understudied. It is even harder to manage. As a threat, it carries a potential for societal disruption-but that potential is not fully understood. An accumulation of these creeping crises can erode public trust in institutions. This paper proposes a definition of a creeping crisis, formulates research questions, and identifies the most relevant theoretical approaches. It provides the building blocks for the systematic study of creeping crises.
