De l’incertitude au risque : un outil heuristique

open access: yesMoussons, 2019
The notion of risk (or perception of risk) is complex because it intrinsically refers to specific ethnographic presents that make the comparative approach difficult. The perception of risk is the consequence of social rationales and dynamics from which a
