Horizontality and Canada's Office of Critical Infrastructure Protection and Emergency Preparedness: a case study

Abstract: This thesis provides a case study of the Government of Canada's former Office of Critical Infrastructure Protection and Emergency Preparedness (OCIPEP) through the lens of horizontal management (part of New Public Management theory). This study demonstrates that the effective use of horizontal management (horizontality) may reduce fragmentation occurring when the goal of critical infrastructure protection requires organizations to work cross-jurisdictionally and in partnerships. This need to collaborate is due to the ownership problem: over 85 per cent of Canada's critical infrastructure is owned by organizations other than the federal government. Research methods include a background survey of literature on critical infrastructure protection, horizontal management and horizontality, and new public management; and interviews using a snowball sample of eight subjects who held various positions within OCIPEP to better understand what the organizational structure appeared to be from within the organization. The research concludes that OCIPEP was not given the resources necessary to successfully fulfil its mandate. Results include the need for administrative and managerial support for horizontal endeavours, to encourage a "cultural context" of horizontality, as there are many organizational barriers to successfully using horizontality and collaborative methods. There were areas of success for OCIPEP, but more areas of weakness. Recommendations include additional study of the organization, a shift into a better-supported organization (which was accomplished with OCIPEP's inclusion into Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Canada), and clear delineation of roles between the Government of Canada and the owners of the critical infrastructure.

41 mins confidence: horizontality / horizontalism / horizontal paralellism
Explanation:
Horizontalidad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Horizontalidad (Eng: horizontality or horizontalism) is a theory or system that advocates the creation, development and maintenance of social structures for the equitable distribution of emancipatory power. These structures and relationships function as a result of dynamic self-management or autogestion, involving continuous participation and exchange between individuals to achieve the larger desired outcomes of the collective whole.
Horizontality is an attempt to decentralize power by allowing everyone to become active and direct participants in the decisions and actions that affect the individual most. This is accomplished without top-down directives or obligations to the individual. Autonomy is constructed through mutual agreements and voluntary commitments that respect the diversity of individual capabilities and personal desires.
This concept is related to the theory and praxis of anarchism. To anarchists, horizontality is a necessary factor for real freedom because it allows personal autonomy within a framework of social equality. This conception refers to equality and autonomy in relation to structures of economic power as much as political power, and to personal empowerment as much as collective empowerment.
As a specific term, horizontalidad is attributed to the radical movements that sprouted in Argentina after the economic crisis of 2001.[citation needed] The related term horizontals arose during the European Social Forum in London in 2004 to describe people organising in a style where they "aspire to an open relationship between participants, whose deliberative encounters (rather than representative status) form the basis of any decisions,"[1] in contrast to "verticals" who "assume the existence and legitimacy of representative structures, in which bargaining power is accrued on the basis of an electoral mandate (or any other means of selection to which the members of an organisation assent)".[1]
