Tagen på sängen

- Abstract
- Lipsky launched in the 1980:s his theory about street-level bureaucracy. It was a study which revealed that public service workers had considerable discretion in how to execute their jobs and therefore function as policy decision makers. This thesis adress this question by analyzing if Lipskys street-level bureaucracy can explain the differences in management between two forest fires in Sweden at the end of July 2014. This question is interesting since one of these two forest fires, which seemed equally from the beginning, developed into the largest fire in Sweden's modern history, with devastating consequences for people and materials, now known as the fire in Västmanland.
