Power and risk in policymakingunderstanding public health debates /[electronic resource] :by Josephine Adekola. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2020. - xiii, 127 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: Risk, Risk Communication and Policy Making -- Chapter 2: Risk Assessment and the Nature of Expertise in Policy Making -- Chapter 3: The Critique of the Social Amplification of Risk Framework from the Power Perspective -- Chapter 4: The UK Smoking Debate -- Chapter 5: The UK MMR Vaccine Debate (1998 - 2000) -- Chapter 6: The Sugar Debate -- Chapter 7: The Policy Evaluation Risk Communication Framework -- Chapter 8: The Role of Power and Expertise in Social Amplification of Risk -- Chapter 9: Best Practice Risk Communication and Conclusion.

This book presents detailed accounts of policymaking in contemporary risk communication. Specifically, it expands on the understanding of the policy decision-making process where there is little or no evidential base, and where multiple interpretations, power dynamics and values shape the interpretation of public health risk issues. The book argues that public health risk communication is a process embedded within multiple dimensions of power and set out practical way forward for public health risk communication. Josephine Adekola is Lecturer in risk management within the department of Finance, Accountancy and Risk, at Glasgow Caledonia University, UK. She teaches at both postgraduate and undergraduate level in business continuity, crisis management and planning, risk analysis and modelling. Josephine is an experienced researcher and has research interest in areas such as risk communication, public policy making, community resilience, business continuity and risk analysis. She has published extensively in the areas of risk and resilience in highly recognised journals. Before joining GCU, Josephine worked at the National Centre for Resilience for Scotland and the University of Glasgow.
