ROLE OF THE STATE AND ITS INSTITUTIONS
IN THE PREVENTION OF FLOOD IN BIH
Abstract
We can safely conclude that modern civilization is much more vulnerable to all crisis
situations than previous , less technologically developed . In support of such a claim , we can
mention the following elements :
- High density of population in major urban agglomerations where every possible modern
crisis is affecting more people than in those civilizations in which the population was diluted ,
that is, those where the majority lived in rural areas and communities;
- Exceptional development of systems of information and communication , especially seeing
globalization at the global level , thus becomes the picture of the world that each of us carries
within it . Similarly the complete public opinion alarms when it comes to sympathy or
antipathy in this regard . This is particularly evident when it comes to disaster manifested in
the form of riots, wars , revolution and the like.
Crises come when the foundations of the existence of a smaller or larger social groups are at
risk , because in these situations many social forces, that are invisible in normal life or even
not exist, come to the surface. Natural and social phenomena can cause collective stress and
crisis, and these causes can be divided into three major groups :
1. Natural phenomena
a. Geophysical phenomena , such as earthquakes, floods , storms , etc .;
b. The biological phenomena under which we mean a major epidemic because they
are mortally dangerous ;
2. Technical factors are related to technical and technological development of human
civilization , for example high- traffic accidents, large fires and explosions , nuclear
accidents and the like;
3. Social phenomena can also be a significant source of crisis in the fall wars , the
Great Depression , mass hunger , etc ;
We will mainly concentrate on natural phenomena and , more specifically on the
geophysical phenomena such as floods , prevention of floods and institutions that deal with
this problem . Methodology used when creating this work was based on normative ,
comparative legal , sociological , comparative and dogmatic method .
Keywords : right to protection from disasters , prevention and remediation of the
consequences , transparency , deadlines , agencies, ministries , inspection and jurisdiction .
