<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt'>In public and academic discourse risk gained ground in the last
decades. Many sociologists believe that risk has become the core category to
understand social reproduction and change (Beck 1992; Giddens 1991). However,
there are still major debates about the characteristics of risk as a social
semantic and how risk occupies a position as a social
"master-discourse".<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt'>This session invites papers from linguistics researchers, sociologists
and other social scientists who examine the semantic of risk, how risk discourse
takes place in different social domains and how it developed historically.
Contributions which reflect on the ideological character of risk are
particularly welcome.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
