Produktinformationen zu „Critical Risk Research (ePub)“
Risk Research: Practices, Politics and Ethics offers a
collection of essays, written by a wide variety of international
researchers in risk research, about what it means to do risk
research, and about how - and with what effects - risk
research is practiced, articulated and exploited.
This approach is based upon the core assumption that: to make a
difference in the study of risk, we must move beyond what we
usually do, challenging the core assumptions, scientific, economic
and social, about how we study, frame, exploit and govern risk.
Hence, through a series of essays, the book aims to challenge the
current ways in which risk-problems are approached and presented,
both conceptually by academics and through the framings that are
encoded in the technologies and socio-political and institutional
practices used to manage risk.
In addressing these questions, the book does not attempt to
offer a model of how risk research 'should' be done. Rather, the
book provides, through illustration, a challenge to the ways in
which risk research is framed as 'problem-solving.' The book's
ultimate objective aims to increase critical debate between
different disciplines, approaches, concepts and problems.
