Description

Explore the fundamental questions of risk in this landmark collection from Routledge. Risk: Philosophical Perspectives examines how we determine acceptable levels of risk and whether these decisions belong to experts or the public. This volume addresses the tension between safety, security, and liberty through a rigorous philosophical lens. Leading scholars analyze a wide range of practical and theoretical problems, including the ethics of risk, rationality, and scientific expertise. The text explores the relationship between risk and lay knowledge, the objectivity of risk assessment, and the precautionary principle. By examining topics such as risk and terror, this book provides a deep investigation into the dimensions of modern risk management.
