Risk communication in calamity society
85-100 p.
- The aim of this study is to offer a sociological communication's reflection in calamity society, divided into two closely integrated and mutually consequential parts. The first part will consider why a sociological approach to cyclical disasters is appropriate, and the possible application of this approach will then be outlined, leading us to the second section of this work. The second part of the essay dwells on issues concerning risk communication, considering that communicative processes play a priority role in the selection of risks, through a slow process of social construction that begins with what Beck calls the staging of risk through a metamorphic process. In this context, a decisive role is played by communication, intended here as a phenomenon affecting the risk management process. [Publisher's text].
- On these basis, this paper deals with the risks of misleading interpretation of calamities often depending on a lack of preparedness and/or by a strong will to manipulate facts politically. [Publisher's text].
