Examining Administrative Inputs for China's Public Emergency Response from the Perspective of System Costs

The cost and distribution of public emergency response is more addressed by government of various levels, and the origin of financial input system plays a vital role in exploring or resolving resources supply. This paper outlines the traits of China's financial expenditure operation in disaster handling with statistical data of specific cases. The results we obtained demonstrate that the cost of China's public emergency response is more limited from administrative inputs, while lacks social capital and the matched bottom-to-up internal reflections. The finding also shows that China's post-disaster reconstruction costs depend on a threshold ethics for operation that the social features is the core of resources distribution. Unlocking the box of administrative cost and increasing the common consciousness of social support would benefit the sustainable development of China's emergency management.
