Canton ProceedingsAbout this journalIn an era of crisis, hazards, and disasters, much attention has been paid to techniques for predicting risks and managing crises. Risk, Hazards & Crisis in Public Policy looks at the larger picture, to study the ways that societies measure and understand risk in the first place, how policies ought to address risks, and how risks become crises. Risk and crisis raise fundamental policy questions with broad social science implications; the journal studies these questions across the spectrum of risks and crises – natural hazards, public health, terrorism, and societal and environmental disasters, in order to frame successful new policy approaches and to advance social science scholarship broadly. Edited by leading scholars in this major emerging field, the journal will appeal to social science scholars as well as policy makers and practitioners of security, emergency management, and hazard mitigation. Risk, Hazards & Crisis in Public Policy is indexed in WorldCat. |
