The Precautionary Principle Has Not Been Shown to Be Incoherent: A Reply to Peterson

Thomas Boyer‐Kassem

Risk Analysis, 2017, vol. 37, issue 11, 2039-2040

Abstract: In this journal, I have objected to Peterson's 2006 claim that the precautionary principle is an incoherent decision rule. I defend my objections to Peterson's recent replies, and I still claim that the precautionary principle has not been shown to be incoherent.
