Audience perspective in the communication of technological risks
Criteria for Technological Choice
This paper examines the question of what factors determine whether a hazardous activity is ‘acceptable’. We conclude that there is no simple answer to this question which can be derived from risk analysis, but that qualitative criteria can be developed to help decisionmakers evaluate risk analysis results. A preliminary set of criteria is proposed
Perilous Progress
This book presents a comparative perspective of technological risks confronting contemporary society. The authors provide a framework for thinking about hazards and hazard management, for measuring the consequences of technological risk for society, and for assessing the appropriateness of various hazard management techniques
