Jurisdiction of the Voivode in the Field of Crisis Management

The voivode is appointed to satisfy public needs at the regional level. One such need is ensuring security, and this is achieved through mechanisms specific to crisis management. In this sphere, the voivode plays a prominent role. The article aims to determine the legal status of the voivode in the area of crisis management, specifically the tasks and responsibilities of the voivode with respect to counteracting crisis situations and mitigating the consequences they entail. This objective required an analysis of the legal provisions regulating the voivode’s position as a representative of the Council of Ministers in the field, as well as the voivode’s responsibilities in crisis management. Two research methods were used to conduct the study under consideration in this paper: the dogmatic-legal and theoretical-legal methods.
