A THEORETICAL STUDY OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR A CRITICAL-SKILLS INVENTORY CATALOGUE FOR CIVIL DEFENSE
Abstract
The sophistication of the national industrial productive entity, the population size, concentrations of the density-profiles of critical skills and the reaction of the populace (to the threat of nuclear attack) as a function of geographic location, all act to encumber a rational post-attack extrapolation of national productive capability. In an effort to define the need for a post- attack plan of industrial recovery, Federal departmental areas of responsibility were delineated, population decimation for casualty rates of 30%, 50% and 70% was discussed and the requirement for an efficient post-attack recovery plan was proposed. The proposition is based on the capability of current electronic data processing systems to permit the cataloguing o individuals possessing skills critically needed for rapid and efficient post-attack recovery.
