Abstract:

In the era of Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity (VUCA), emergencies arise incessantly, societal security faces reconstruction, and emergency management urgently needs innovation. This paper reviews the international research literature on emergency management in the field of public administration from 2019 to 2024, analyzing research hotspots, development trends, and future prospects, against the backdrop of major public health events. Based on an analysis of 504 papers from 30 representative journals, we found that emergency management research generally adopts the theoretical framework of emergency governance, focusing on the interactive mechanisms among government, society, and market, and delves deeply into core issues from the governmental, societal, and government-society collaboration dimensions. The seven major trends in emergency management include the transformation of governance paradigms, the deepening of ethical issues, the integration of interdisciplinary approaches, the application of digital tools, the construction of global emergency response systems, the optimization of decision-making in uncertain environments, and innovations in resilient governance. These advancements not only enrich the theoretical system but also expand practical pathways, providing insights for emergency management in the new era.
