危机管理研究在很大程度上忽视了政治领导人在大规模极端事件发生后面临的最紧迫挑战之一:如何科普通常所谓的指责游戏。在这篇文章中,我们提供了一个启发式的,以帮助理解政治领导人的反应,在危机后的责任,强调他们的领导风格的政治管理的查询的关键作用。在整合了危机管理和政治领导风格的理论和实证研究结果后,我们通过将其应用于2005年布什政府对卡特里娜飓风的反应来说明我们的启发式。最后,我们提出了进一步研究的不足的问题,政治领导人在严重的危机事件后所面临的指责管理的挑战的建议。
Crisis management research has largely ignored one of the most pressing challenges political leaders are confronted with in the wake of a large-scale extreme event: how to cope with what is commonly called the blame game. In this article, we provide a heuristic to help understand political leader responses to blame in the aftermath of crises, emphasizing the crucial role of their leadership style on the political management of Inquiries. After integrating theoretical and empirical findings on crisis management and political leadership styles, we illustrate our heuristic by applying it to the Bush administration's response to Hurrican Katrina in 2005. We conclude by offering suggestions for further research on the underdeveloped subject of the blame management challenges faced by political leaders in the wake of acute crisis episodes.
