Risk assessment and risk management: the right approach? Hazel Kemshall Introduction and context The ‘risk business’ has been described as one of the world’s largest industries (Adams, 1995), characterised by phenomenal growth and net widening. Crime management has been no exception, with risk forming a key ingredient of penal policy in recent years (see Kemshall, 2003 and 2006 for a full review).

Introduction Management scientists and corporate experts have developed risk management doctrines and methods to guide managers on how to address risk in comprehensive ways.

151 Concluding remarks: Reimagining children’s place in disaster risk management Israel Rodríguez-Giralt, Maggie Mort and Ana Delicado In developing a cultural framework for disaster risk management (DRM), CUIDAR has been a transformative project.
