Risques industriels majeurs et environnements

Creators of wealth, innovation, jobs, at the heart of economic and even geopolitical reindustrialization issues, technological systems with major industrial risks are part of a social and natural environment that they modify and threaten, an environment that now threatens in return. Thus, global warming and associated extreme events are the most visible aspects of these new risks, while the social acceptability of industrial establishments is also being raised in a renewed way. Territory, crisis, work, laws, standards, organizations, businesses and the state are at the forefront of the questions addressed in a plural way in this book (geography, history, sociology, ergonomics, law, political science). By relying on the knowledge acquired, of which it offers an interdisciplinary assessment, these studies open up new avenues of investigation and action.
