From the perspective of system science, this paper analyzes the system mechanism of public crisis formation and argues that the essence of public crisis is a variety of bifurcations of the social system. Accordingly, the main characteristic of public crisis is shown as an ill- structured problem situation. In the public crisis management, MCDM, as a hard system approach, is strong in coping with the managerial problem which has clear objectives and well structure. When encountered ill- structured problem situations, SSM can be a supplementary methodology to MCDM. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
