Risk and Crisis Management in the Public Sector: Regulation and Emergency Management: An Exclusive Domain for the Experts?

Francis Terry

Public Money & Management, 1998, vol. 18, issue 4, 21-26

Abstract: The technology of communications regularly brings news about crises and emergencies across the globe, but it does virtually nothing to inform our understanding of risk, nor of the regulatory frameworks that are appropriate to controlling it. This article considers the risks from industrial applications of modern technology, compares the institutional responses to controlling them and finally poses the question of what role ordinary citizens should have in the process of regulation.
