  • Conceptualizing AMR as a creeping disaster in terms of pace and space 

    Staupe-Delgado, Reidar; Engstrom, Alina; Cadiz, Sebastian Andres Frugone (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023)
    Traditionally defined, disasters are understood as relatively limited in duration. Yet we also know that some disasters are of a creeping and indeed perpetual nature – their onsets do not seize to advance. One example is AMR. In theory, it should be easier to respond to such creeping disasters as a result of their slow build up. In reality, however, swift response to creeping disasters rarely ...
  • The challenges experts face during creeping crises: the curse of complacency 

    Zaman, Ahmad Wesal; Rubin, Olivier; Staupe, Reidar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-05)
    The policy literature has generally conceptualised crises as urgent public threats with clearly demarcated ‘focusing events’. Consequently, most studies have identified the main challenges faced by expert agencies involved in evidence-based policymaking as managing uncertainty, time pressure and communication. However, less focus has been devoted to analysing the concrete challenges faced by expert ...
