Successful Experience and New Challenge of Chinese Strongly Government-oriented Disaster Relief Model

The existing literatures about disaster relief mainly base on the management background of the western developed countries, and the hot topics focus on humanitarian operations and supply chain disruptions that are dominated by social force and market mechanism. Chinese disaster relief mode of " party committee responsibility and government domination” has received less attention. Chinese strongly government-oriented disaster relief model is different from the international hot topics in this area, such as market mechanism about supply chain disruption, social donation, and humanitarian operation, which management characteristics embody as the followings. The target is to ensure the people’s life security; the method of resource allocation depends on administrative means of party committees and governments; the emergency relief force is mainly made up of army, armed police force and public security fire control institutions. The future evolutionary trend of Chinese disaster relief model is multilateral coordination of social participant and market mechanism based on the government-oriented foundation.
