EnglishRisk studies are carried out by geographers in different schools and countries. The geographical approach to risk focuses on the interaction between physical and human elements in territories. The case of wetlands shows the advantages of this approach. Wetlands can help to reduce the risk of flooding and improve water quality; nevertheless, their functions are generally undervalued. This analysis was carried out through a case study: the Po delta. Both "natural" (flooding, drought) and "technological" hazards were considered. A comparative analysis was also performed in Camargue, in order to try out the methodology. Field work and document analysis point out the relationship between risk perception and the geo-historical evolution of the territory. Risk is linked to a territorial system, to its history, actors network and stakes; consequently, the territory itself should constitute the core of risk analysis.

| Abstract: | Risk studies are carried out by geographers in different schools and countries. The geographical approach to risk focuses on the interaction between physical and human elements in territories. The case of wetlands shows the advantages of this approach. Wetlands can help to reduce the risk of flooding and improve water quality; nevertheless, their functions are generally undervalued. This analysis was carried out through a case study: the Po delta. Both "natural" (flooding, drought) and "technological" hazards were considered. A comparative analysis was also performed in Camargue, in order to try out the methodology. Field work and document analysis point out the relationship between risk perception and the geo-historical evolution of the territory. Risk is linked to a territorial system, to its history, actors network and stakes; consequently, the territory itself should constitute the core of risk analysis. | |
