Just as all life is full of hazard, all life is full of risk. However, the concept of risk can have varying meanings depending on the context. Just as it is used differently by insurance specialists versus stockbrokers or physicians, disaster managers employ their own deviation on risk. It is not uncommon, for example, for the term to be used in a positive manner to mean “venture” or “opportunity.” Such variance in use may come from the word’s multiple origins. The Arabic risq means “anything that has been given to you (by God) and from which you draw profit,” possibly explaining why some may use the term in relation to fortune or opportunity. However, the Latin risicum, which describes a specific scenario faced by sailors attempting to avoid the danger posed by a barrier reef, seems a more appropriate derivation for use in relation to disaster management, where the term’s connotation is always negative.
