The Political Economy of Risk in Finance and the Military by Marc Schelhase

This book is about risk conceptions, experiences and reflections. It applies the concept of the risk triangle, with its?societal, organisational and personal angles,?to two areas of inquiry:?financial markets and the military, seeking to demonstrate the challenges, dilemmas and, in many ways, also the impossibilities of risk analysis and risk management. Drawing on empirical and micro- and macro-level analysis, this innovative work will appeal to students of political science, economics and business as well as to risk professionals and risk-takers.?
