Vpliv fokusnih dogodkov na javne politike na primeru antropogenih nesreč : doktorska disertacija

Bauman, Sara (avtor), Fink-Hafner, Danica (mentor)

Doktorska disertacija se osredotoča na raziskovanje vpliva izbranih antropogenih nesreč na javne politike v Sloveniji. Antropogene nesreče v disertacije razumemo kot fokusne dogodke – ta koncept je razvil Birkland (1997). V intervjujih z eksperti smo identificirali dva fokusna dogodka, in sicer požar v Kemisu in eksplozijo v Melaminu, ter dva potencialna fokusna dogodka – požar v podjetju Fragmat in železniško nesrečo v Hrastovljah. S poglobljeno analizo izbranih fokusnih dogodkov poskušamo ugotoviti, katere kombinacije v raziskovalnem modelu identificiranih dejavnikov se pri analiziranih primerih pojavljajo in kako te vplivajo na različne javnopolitične izide po fokusnih dogodkih. Dodatna analiza dveh potencialnih fokusnih dogodkov pa nam je omogočila boljše razumevanje dinamike (ne)fokusnih dogodkov v Sloveniji. Raziskovalni model, oblikovan na podlagi pregleda literature, vključuje element javnopolitičnega konteksta, akterjev in čeznacionalnega konteksta dogajanja. Javnopolitični kontekst temelji na konceptu treh tokov – problemskega, političnega in javnopolitičnega (Kingdon, 1984); element akterjev pa v veliki meri temelji na ideji javnopolitičnih omrežij. Z analizo smo ugotovili, da so analiziranim fokusnim dogodkom sledile nekatere javnopolitične spremembe na relevantnih področjih, povezanih z dogodki, vseeno pa so umanjkale nekatere pomembne spremembe, ki so jih kot potrebne navedli različni akterji znotraj posameznih dogodkov. Ugotovili smo, da po pomembnosti vpliva na javnopolitične izide v okviru našega raziskovalnega modela izstopata dva elementa, in sicer politični tok znotraj javnopolitičnega konteksta in akterji. V okviru političnega toka je bilo za spodbujanje razprav in za nabor več možnih javnopolitičnih izidov ključnega pomena to, da so o dogodku potekale razprave na parlamentarnih odborih in v Državnem zboru. V povezavi s tem so imeli pomembno vlogo politični akterji, kot pomembni pa so se izkazali tudi lokalni akterji, ki so se zavzemali predvsem za želene javnopolitične spremembe.

The doctoral dissertation focuses on researching the impact of selected anthropogenic disasters on public policies in Slovenia. Anthropogenic disasters are understood in the dissertation as focusing events – this concept was developed by Birkland (1997). In interviews with experts, we identified two focusing events, namely the fire in Kemis and the explosion in Melamin, and two potential focusing events – the fire in the Fragmat company and the railway accident in Hrastovlje. Through an in-depth analysis of the selected focusing events, we attempt to determine which combinations of factors identified in the research model occur in the analyzed cases and how they affect various public policy outcomes after focusing events. An additional analysis of two potential focusing events enabled us to better understand the dynamics of (non)focusing events in Slovenia. The research model, developed on the basis of a literature review, includes an element of public policy context, actors and the transnational context of events. Public policy context is based on the concept of three streams – problem, political and public policy (Kingdon, 1984); The actor element is largely based on the idea of public policy networks. The analysis found that the analyzed focusing events were followed by some public policy changes in relevant areas related to the events, but some important changes that were indicated as necessary by various actors within the individual events were missing. We found that two elements stand out in terms of the importance of their influence on public policy outcomes within our research model, namely the political stream within the public policy context and the actors. Within the political stream, it was crucial for stimulating discussions and for a set of more possible public policy outcomes that the event was discussed in parliamentary committees and in the National Assembly. In this regard, political actors played an important role, and local actors also proved to be important, advocating primarily for the desired public policy changes.
