| description | Th e actions of the military structures to protect the civilian population have evolved from
air defence operations to complex missions of “human security”, based on prevention
and intervention in any civil emergency situation facing a community. Our prospective
undertakings have highlighted the necessity to integrate traditional civil defence actions
with modern actions taken to manage emergencies against all kinds of hazards.
Th e profound transformations of contemporary society and of the military body, in the
context of the new risks and threats to the international security environment, required the
remodelling of the role of the military instrument.
Th e consequences of the combined military and non-military risks and threats can
seriously aff ect the capacity to respond to evolutionary forms of their manifestation by
diminishing the human, technical, material and fi nancial resources, the sudden decrease of
the standard of living and the citizens’ trust in the state institutions with a decisional role
in the fi eld of national security.
Th us, in order to accomplish the specifi c missions of these circumstances, the main question
is: under what conditions can the armed forces cooperate with the civil protection structures,
as well as with the other elements of national public security and safety system, focused on
fi ghting against risk and threats specifi c to emergency situations?
In this respect, this paper intends to present a number of particular aspects regarding the
role and relevance of military intervention in humanitarian crisis management for the
protection of the civilian population along with other specialist structures. |
