Description

Explore the complexities of managing large-scale risks with Global Risk Governance: Concept and Practice Using the IRGC Framework. This volume, part of the International Risk Governance Council Bookseries, provides a deep look into how governance structures handle major environmental and social challenges. Using the historical case of the Nagara River barrage project in Japan, the text examines the real-world consequences of planning for economic development versus managing ecological impacts. It follows the timeline from the 1960s through the 1990s to illustrate how lawsuits and concerns regarding fisheries and ecosystems can lead to significant project delays and shifts in governance needs. This book serves as a vital resource for professionals and students interested in public health, environmental management, and the practical application of risk frameworks. It offers a clear perspective on how decision-making processes evolve when faced with competing interests and long-term environmental risks.
