DescriptionThe purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the observations made in our recent field trip to New Brunswick. The initial purpose of the field trip was to examine: (1) the nature of the problems related to the flooding and (2) the response of the Fredericton community to these problems. In the field, the research objectives were somewhat redefined to include: (1) an examination of the response to the disaster for the St. John River valley (including Fredericton), and (2) an examination of the recent history of Provincial Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) which offers an opportunity for a useful case study of the social change of an organization, both in terms of its structure and its legitimacy.en
