State the theory first and then apply it to the case questions below.  Use the sections and section title format below. 

1-Should there be national goals and strong federal direction, as during the “creative federalism” period, or greater flexibility for state and local officials to target funds and efforts where they feel there is the greatest need?

2-What would happen if the federal role in emergency management was reduced to providing financial support?

3-How likely is it that state representatives will address the state’s significant hazards without federal encouragement?

4-What are the advantages of developing local capabilities to reduce hazards? How likely is it that local officials will address risks to life and property without outside funding and support?
