Book Synopsis Risk Regulation in the United States and European Union by : A. Luedtke
Book excerpt: Globalization and technology have altered public fears and changed expectations of how government should make people safer. This book analyzes how Europeans and Americans perceive and regulate risk. The authors show how public fears about risk are filtered through political systems to pressure governments to insure against risk.
