Rational behaviour, Risk aversion, High stakes for society

Abstract

Certain areas related to the topics under discussion here lie outside my field; for instance the evaluation of risk assessment and security deficiencies in the transport sector. What has convinced me of the importance of this subject are a few very general conclusions, indeed I would say, impressions, that I have drawn from the truly remarkable development of our powers to analyse the risk decision-making process over some years now.Risk, uncertainty, home security, expected utility, non-expected utility, OECD
