Estes poderes são permanentes em sede de planeamento de emergência, e conjunturais em sede de resposta e recuperação face à ocorrência ou iminência de acidentes graves ou catástrofes.
Em virtude da complexidade crescente derivada da interconectividade dos sistemas políticos, económico-financeiros, sociais e ambientais, suportados por uma sociedade de informação instantânea à escala global, verifica-se uma pressão constante sobre o decisor político para garantir a proteção e segurança às populações em tempo acelerado correspondente à circulação da informação. Resulta assim uma contradição do mundo percebido em tempo acelerado com as capacidades existentes constrangidas por limites de escassez. Como pode o decisor político alicerçar fundamentadamente, as decisões de investimento e resposta na área da gestão de emergência? O presente trabalho visa proceder a uma iniciação ao estudo da interconectividade dos riscos e da computação quântica no software Netlogo enquanto instrumento de apoio à decisão e análise de cenários cujos resultados contribuirão para a clarificação da estratégia a implementar.

This recognition is detected in the National Risk Assessment developed by Portuguese National Civil Protection Authority in 2014. In a growing complexed and polycentric society, with dispersion of western powers, internationally projected by a dissipative hegemony of the United States of America, and the resurgence of power from the continental potency, materialized by the annexation of the Crimean Peninsula by Russian Federation, can a small state like Portugal (Almeida, 2012), in the face of need to forge internationally alliances, disregard the risks posed by intentional threats of internal and/or external sources, materialized or difused by means and regular or irregular forms? And what if in the framework of international alliances, our international partners fell equaly constrained in their capacity for mutual support? Wich are the security pillars whose competences raises permanent needs for prospective efforts and maintainance of dissuasive capacity.
The present investigation, regarding the new National Authority for Civil Protection attributions, newly extended to Civil Emergency Planning, conducts a research with revision of literature, complemented by exploratory interviews under the interpretivist paradigm recurring to the inductive method, characterizing a new security paradigm that if not attended can act has generator of collective risks with derivative potential upon state security (sovereignty, geographical space and population) and civil protection activity, considered has a sectorial area of internal security, proposing a strategic prospective model, a process for strategic planning framed by its own theoric matrix, suggesting the adoption of a Global National Risk Assessment for reflection of a large spectrum of risks and treaths pending upon the Portuguese State, allowing in that sequence, the production of operational scenarios for the institutional players composing the National Security Pilars.
