Abstract: Management of Inherently Dangerous Territories (IDT) represents a major issue for our society ; it should be prepared for it. The problem that underlies our thoughts is to know how to manage in a sustainable way, the inherent dangerousness of a territory. The original concept of IDT questions classic probability approaches of the risk. It considers hazards as a territory?s constituent. Observing a territory in its historical dimension, and focusing our analysis on contemporary public actions in natural hazards management, we investigate the relation between risk and territory as well as strategies of adaptation developed in territorial crisis management.
