REFLEKSJE NAD POJĘCIEM RYZYKA
(Wydział Prawa i Administracji UAM, 2004) Michalak, Józef
The aim of this paper is to identify the meanings of the term “risk” in order to select an adequate procedure to overcome the notorious ambiguity of the term. The frame of reference for the resolution of the problem is the concept of culture (and epistemology based on it) developed by J. Kmita from the Poznań University. The results of the investigation are as follows: 1. There are at least seven meanings of the term “risk” denoting different objects, which are logically incomparable; 2. This state of affairs dictates that the adequate procedure to cope with the ambiguity is the essentially correcting correspondance enabling, inter alia, the so called positive exploitation of the explicanda the concepts of risk taken into account).
