| Abstract | Managing risks and preventing disasters are increasingly at the centre of contemporary debates about governance. And as several contributors to this volume indicate, the potential for disaster is ever present. Each year, sadly, some of these potentials are realised. Not surprisingly, we have debates about nuclear safety in the wake of natural disasters—especially following the great East Japan earthquake and subsequent tsunami of 2011. Food scares are quite regular around the globe, particularly E. coli outbreaks. Germany suffered a particularly bad one in 2011. Then in this region, of course, there are natural disasters—be they floods and bushfires in Australia or earthquakes in New Zealand. |
