Managing risk necessitates an understanding of both how to avoid
detrimental outcomes and to reap beneficial results. Organizations are
regularly confronted with complex decisions involving risk and the
impending consequences of the negative impact of its manifestation.
However, the positive aspects of embracing risk should also be
sufficiently evaluated to obtain a full assessment of opportunities.
Socio-Political Risk Management: Assessing and Managing Global
Insecurity covers a range of viewpoints and issues which can be applied
to various organizational agency structures. These perspectives examine
how social and political risk can impact an agency, and what
recommendations are made to adapt, mitigate, and strengthen the
organization against political risk. Accessibility to personnel and
agencies via social media, the internet and public exposure compounded
with political and social societal shifts have led many agencies in a
constant spin to assuage and sustain viability and relevance publicly.
Socio-Political Risk Management: Assessing and Managing Global
Insecurity serves the readers by raising awareness and the necessity to
control social and political risks in their organizations. This volume
explores pathways for those in differing organizational structures to
find common threads pertaining to social and political risks. An
important goal of the work is also to develop a framework for managing
and exploiting risk that can be applied at the organizational level.
