Abstract

The term “risk”, in its wider and more general use, is normally taken to mean a situation in which an unwanted event may or may not happen. The main traits it concerns are usually uncertainty as well as probability and how to calculate it. So, some tension between control and indefiniteness can be felt within such term.
