Risk behaviour and risk management in business life influence a
wide range of fields in which only a very limited amount of
research has been undertaken. These topics have often been treated
as if they were theoretically and practically isolated from other
fields, the so called risk archipelago problem. What is actually
needed is another focus, in which the problem of risk is treated as
a central theme. The demand for interdisciplinary research means
that there is a need for crossing scientific boundaries. In
approaching risk problems from a holistic perspective there is also
a parallel need for linking the scientific and the business worlds.
Researchers must work closely together in concrete
multidisciplinary research projects and in co-operation with the
industrial world in seeking out and solving research problems of
importance. This book contains selected and re-written papers, and
key-note speeches presented in a risk-seminar that Stockholm
University organised in June 1997. The seminar, in which 200
researchers and practitioners from 26 countries participated, was
divided into four main topic areas: Risk Assessment and Credit
Management, Psychology in Business Life, Risk Management in Small
Firms and Law and Business Risk. In writing this book, the editor
invited eight professors from four continents to assist him in
introducing the reader to the different and scientific disciplines
and in explaining the need for interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary
and cross-disciplinary risk research projects. The book consists of
eight chapters and the target groups are researchers, doctoral and
master students at universities and business people working in the
risk management area.
