The past 30 years have seen risk become a major field of study,
most recently with the COVID-19 pandemic positioning it at the
centre of public awareness, yet there is limited understanding of
how risk can and should be used in policy making. This book
provides an accessible guide to the key elements of risk in policy
making, including its role in rhetoric to legitimise decisions and
choices. Using risk as a framework, it examines how policy makers
in a range of countries responded to the COVID-19 pandemic and
explains why some were more successful than others.
