Security and Safety in the Era of Global Risks provides a forum for a robust theoretical and policy debate to unlock new perspectives on risk and conflict plaguing humanity today, and explores innovative approaches to address them in a more peaceful, people-centred and sustainable way.
The concept of risk in global life has not been fully understood and explored and this book attempts to examine what it entails in the fast changing, interconnected and complex world. As a foundational component of safety systems, risk has been considered relatively simple, predictable, and therefore, assessable and manageable phenomenon. Social and political sciences prefer the terminology of security to capture the dimension of risk which is more complex and more consequential to survival. Risk has become more human-made and intentional today, and this book explores innovative approaches and engages in theoretical and policy debates to capture its political and security dimensions.
