Journal Guide

The aim of Risk Management is to encourage discussion and debate on issues that arise from conventional and emerging perspectives on risk, crisis management and resilience. Risk Management publishes papers that address the range of traditional issues within risk and crisis management but also encourages multi-disciplinary perspectives on the ways in which these approaches are evolving and can be refined, refreshed and reinterpreted in light of contemporary challenges. The Journal actively seeks to publish papers that move beyond the narrow disciplinary-bounded, engineering and financial frameworks of risk, and that reflect the inter-disciplinary, boundary-less and inter-connected nature of the processes around risk, crisis and disaster.
