Based on detailed research funded across two continents and
involving universities in Argentina, Spain and the UK, this book
sets out an innovative, multidisciplinary approach to assessing
both environmental and social risks in a given territorial area.
Using data from a number of Ibero-American nations, the study
combines environmental, socio-economic and geographic factors to
construct a set of spatial and technical indicators that measure
the social vulnerability and industrial hazardousness of a defined
area. Aggregating these indicators in a geographic information
system (GIS) allows researchers to assess the potential risk to
which a certain area and its population are subject as a result of
the environmental deterioration caused by co-located industrial
activity.
