The Evolution of Global Risks
Twentieth
Century
Risks
Twenty First
Century
Risks
Global risks occur in multiple dimensions
Spatial
Temporal
Some risks are spreading over national
borders and even over continents
Some risks have a long latency period,
so that their future effects cannot be
reliably determined and restricted
Many new risks are the result of complex
processes involving long chains of effects,
so their causes and effects cannot be
determined with sufficient precision

We are facing with perpetual uncertainty
Incalculable
Non-Compensable
Their consequence are in principle incalculable
Given the new quality of “threats to humanity”,
the logic of compensation is breaking down and
is being replaced by the principle of precaution
through prevention
The impact of global risks
Democratic Global risks affect both the rich and the poor, the
powerful and the powerless
In the Liquid Phase Modernity, “Fear” determines the attitude towards life
