The main goal of this paper is to present the structure, functioning and organization of the Union Civil Protection Mechanism, considering various aspects of international cooperation in the field of emergency management provided by the European civil protection system, and analysis of parallel processes, challenges and possible directions of development arising from the participation of the Republic of Serbia in this program of the European Union intended to strengthen cooperation in the field of emergency management. Starting from the understanding that international cooperation is an important segment of the disaster risk reduction and emergency management system, which encourages and supports the process of developing national technical capacities at the same time strengthening human resources, a quantitative and qualitative approach is used to consider the existing level of cooperation, and to hypothetically analyze how the higher intensity of cooperation could maximize the effects arising from the participation of the Republic of Serbia in the Union Civil Protection Mechanism. The expected result refers to summarizing open issues, but also open opportunities provided by the Mechanism, with insight into existing processes and activities independently implemented and as a national contact point in accordance with its competencies at the inter-institutional level coordinated by the Sector for Emergency Management of the Ministry of the Interior.

Voluntary fire societies in the Republic of Serbia are currently a significant operational component and additional assistance to professional fire and rescue units and local emergency headquarters when needed. During the last three decades, this area has been largely neglected and threatened to lead to complete devastation and disappearance of voluntary fire societies in the Republic of Serbia. However, since the adoption of the Law on voluntary firefighting, which was adopted at the end of 2018, the Ministry of the Interior and the Sector for emergency management have started and implemented a series of activities aimed at the systemic development of voluntary firefighting. During this process, significant attention is paid to the financing of voluntary fire societies, which is currently not systematically resolved and this will be the basic hypothesis of the work with the aim that the authors propose the establishment of stable sources of funding that enable smooth operation and functioning of voluntary fire societies. The research in this paper will be focused on the analysis of voluntary firefighting in the countries around the Republic of Serbia and the ways in which they regulated the financing of voluntary fire societies. One of the expected results of the work is the proposal of a financial model aimed at both the national level and the level of local self-governments, which would contribute to further improving the work of voluntary fire societies.

The author discusses the importance of criminal justice protection in the Republic of Serbia in reducing the risk of disasters. The main assumption is that criminal law also has an impact on the valid application of disaster risk reduction rules, apropos, their prevention. The analysis begins with a theoretical determination of the character of the criminal response (subsidiarity, general and special prevention), then clarifying the meaning of certain terms that constitute a risk reduction system, that are part of the country's national security system (disasters, accidents, emergencies, calamities, etc). We will analyze crimes such as Aggravated larceny committed during a fire, flood, earthquake or other calamity, failure to take part in eliminating a general hazard, and for this area characteristic of crimes against the environment and general safety of people and property. Prescribing these crimes (in addition to the provisions of the Law on disaster risk reduction and emergency management), expands the possibilities of protection against injury or endangerment of goods "affected by disasters". These incriminations further "strengthen" citizens' obligations as subjects of a disaster risk reduction system. Given the importance of security culture in this area, we will examine the adequacy of existing criminal regulations and consider the possible need to change existing or introduce new incriminations. A review will also be given on the reasons for delegating jurisdiction over these occurrences.

In order to improve mutual cooperation in the civil protection area, the member states of the European Union (EU) have established several frameworks. These frameworks are the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, the European Civil Protection Pool and rescEU, which unites the means, capacities and funds of the EU intended for the functioning of civil protection. In this context, the EU simultaneously laid a solid foundation for more effective actions in emergency management, but also prevented the overlapping of jurisdictions. The goal of establishment of different frameworks in the field of civil protection and their unification is the formation of a single EU civil protection system that should operate uniformly throughout the EU territory. This does not imply the abolition of the national civil protection systems of the member states, but rather the formation of a supranational system that should provide support to the individual systems of the EU member states in emergency situations. The mentioned frameworks represent the best way to unify the capacities of all member states in the field of civil protection, and for a stronger joint response in case of emergency situations. The EU tries to act through the mentioned frameworks not only on the territory of its members, but also in a wider context.

Consideration of the complex security issue in modern conditions requires the inclusion of various aspects, among which a very current environmental aspect is unavoidable. The security consideration based on it, results in a special form of environmental security, as an unavoidable part of the overall security. Thereby two analytical security levels stand out: national and international. The analysis of environmental security includes a very important issue of tort in the domain of environment and appropriate forms of crime, which require special attention. Environmental crime begins from the environmental law, and is related to the normative approach in defining, monitoring and opposing various forms and degrees of commiting a tort. A complex analysis of environmental security and environmental crime indicates a causal relationship and the necessary activity to reduce environmental crime in order to increase environmental security and overall security. The considered connection indicates the need to increase the analytical attention to the reduction of environmental crime through the increase of human and organizational capacities, in the domain of general, and especially environmental security.

The aim of this paper is to determine the manner in which the normative-legal basis is constituited for the adoption of security plans of operators in the protection of critical infrastructure in the Republic of Serbia on the one hand, and in the European Union on the other. Long-standing tendencies of the Republic of Serbia to join the European Union arises questions as whether and to what extent the national normative-legal regulation of security plans of operators in critical infrastructure protection in the Republic of Serbia is harmonized with the same normative-legal regulation at the European Union level. In this paper we try to show how the most important document in this area in the Republic of Serbia, the Law on Critical Infrastructure, regulates this area and how it is done under the umbrella document in the European Union, Council Directive (EU) 2008/114, and to determine in which extent the legal solution of the Republic of Serbia is harmonized with the European norm. A comparative analysis of these two umbrella documents shows that there is a high degree of agreement between national and regional norms in this area, and if certain differences arise in practice, they are the result of different implementation of these legislative bases and not their different regulation.

Climate change is increasing the gap between security and gender inclusion, ie changing the security dynamics that will be increasingly unfavorable for women and girls in the future. As a vulnerable category, women are often seriously threatened during emergencies. Given the unequal and marginalized position of women in patriarchal and marginalized societies, women's safety and well-being may be further compromised by exposure to natural disasters (shelters in poor settlements, floodplains, conflict zones, seismic areas, etc.), and becoming doubly endangered - by additional marginalization and direct endangerment of security, health, and well-being. The aim of this paper is to review the academic literature related to climate change and the gender security nexus. Relying on the human security concept as a basic theoretical starting point, we aimed to point out the consequences that various aspects of climate change (primarily manifested through natural disasters) negatively affect women. Therefore, the basic methodological tool is the content analysis of relevant academic articles, international documents, and practical policies that address the issue of gender, security, emergencies, and climate change.

In the Republic of Serbia, the assessment of losses and damages after a natural disaster is based on a document adopted in 1987 during the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Although of exceptional quality in its structure and purpose, the Instruction on a Uniform Methodology for Assessing Damage from Natural Disasters has outlived its time and it is necessary to align the document with today's needs. The Government of the Republic of Serbia has formed a working group with the task of drafting a unique methodology for assessing damage from natural and other disasters, which is also in line with international standards and practice. In parallel with this activity, engineering associations and groups of experts are working on technical instructions for each of the natural hazards, which will be compatible with the unique methodology to be adopted by the Government of Serbia. The earthquake that hit the Republic of Croatia in 2020 pointed out a number of shortcomings in national documents, and then the international methodology "Post Disaster Need Assessment" was used to assess the damage. The paper presents the experiences of a team of experts from Serbia who paid an official visit to the Republic of Croatia after the earthquakes in Petrinja and Zagreb and gained significant experience from the field in damage assessment, as well as through cooperation with crisis headquarters formed after the earthquake.

The ubiquitous trend of intensive exploitation of natural resources at the national and global level can cause a series of environmental, political and social disturbances. The need for a healthy environment, on the one hand, and the improvement of people's living standards in the 21st century, on the other, are often incompatible despite the constant formal emphasis on the term or dissonant interpretation of the importance of the concept of sustainable development. In the theoretical sense, changes (disturbances) in the environment are the result of complex natural and social cause-and-effect actions, which, viewed in a wider context, unites ecological security. It can also be said that the conditional degradation of space is an inevitable consequence of the initiation of development, provided that the impacts are reduced to a minimum level by rehabilitation and recultivation of the space and the living environment (which primarily refers to the construction of infrastructure and the arrangement of space for various purposes). This is solved during the preparation of planning documents, environmental impact analyzes and measures and policies for the implementation of planning solutions. Accordingly, for the purpose of researching changes in space and improving the solution to the scientific problem of the lack of adequate methodology for achieving ecological security on the territory of the Republic of Serbia, the most important natural resources were identified as basic indicators in this work: water, soil, air and biodiversity. In accordance with the projected goal (systematic description of the state of ecological security in the territory of the Republic of Serbia with a special reference to the state of natural resources), one of the main techniques will be the analysis of the content of documents created or generated within individual national institutions, as well as international and non-governmental organizations. According to the available data, it can be concluded that the current state of ecological security in the Republic of Serbia is violated or is potentially threatened, bearing in mind the fact that the main cause of the disturbance is the excessive or uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources, the trend of realizing short-term financial benefits, the absence of implementation of planned solutions, the creation of conflicts for the purpose of space and the application of measures against endangering the living environment.

The EU Civil Protection Mechanism was established in 2001 to bring together Member States' capacities for a joint response to natural and technical and technological disasters, which go beyond national response capacities. In addition, an increasing number of security challenges, risks and threats that come from nature or as a consequence of technical and technological processes, directly affect several EU member states and neighboring countries, which makes mutual cooperation and coordination on prevention and elimination of consequences necessary. The Republic of Serbia became a member of the Mechanism in 2015. Besides Serbia, which is not a member of the EU, five other non-EU countries are part of the Mechanism, which shows that the activities of the Mechanism are not limited to the EU and that Serbia has all the Mechanism capacities available even before EU membership. The aim of this paper is to analyze all the capacities of the Mechanism that Serbia can use to develop its own resilience to disasters, as well as procedures for joint action in case of major natural and technical disasters. In addition, the goal is to explore the indirect benefits that Serbia may have on its path to joining the EU from cooperation with the Mechanism.

Besides Serbia, which is not a member of the EU, five other non-EU countries are part of the Mechanism, which shows that the activities of the Mechanism are not limited to the EU and that Serbia has all the Mechanism capacities available even before EU membership. The aim of this paper is to analyze all the capacities of the Mechanism that Serbia can use to develop its own resilience to disasters, as well as procedures for joint action in case of major natural and technical disasters. In addition, the goal is to explore the indirect benefits that Serbia may have on its path to joining the EU from cooperation with the Mechanism.","PeriodicalId":33838,"journal":{"name":"Godisnjak Fakulteta bezbednosti","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71219913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
