Whether we are dealing with natural disasters or a visit from a Head of State, the calculation of political risk has become an increasingly important part of the political decision-making process. Using international and domestic case studies, such as the Mad Cow crisis and the US response to September 11, Calculating Political Risk is the first book to examine the concept of political risk calculation, the way in which political actors determine whether something is politically risky, and the implications this has for policy design.
