- W135461408 abstract "One might be forgiven for thinking that notions of risk appeared to adopt a higher media perspective during the latter part of the 20th Century than in previous periods of our history. This was due, in part, to the many and varied media conceptualisations of the problems that are allegedly facing society. For many, the media assault on our senses created a feeling that the world was becoming a more dangerous place. Humans seem to be discovering more exotic ways to die or to be severely injured as a result of the activities of modern societies. Even nature appears to be determined to exact a greater price from the human race through El Nino and a range of natural disasters. Of course, such expressions of the risk problem at the start of the second millennium rather mask the complexity of the many problems that face humankind. To an extent, it is this complexity and the uncertainty of our knowledge around the issues of hazard that creates, and sits at the heart of, the risk problem. Thus a key part of contemporary difficulties lies in our (in)abilities to make sense of ‘risk’. This is especially so within a highly charged environment in which trust, issues surrounding the burden of proof and the legitimacy of expertise are crucial issues. Indeed, a proliferation of concern with risk seems to have arisen at a time when questions are being asked of both the ability and even the willingness of government to ‘protect’ society from the complex web of risks that seem to face us (see Rose, 1996). Some recent examples serve to illustrate the nature and extent of the problem." @default.
