The Routledge Handbook of Political Risk
Editat de Cecilia Emma Sottilotta, Julian Campisi, Johannes Leitner, Hannes Meissneren Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mar 2025
Seasoned and emerging academics from the global north and south, alongside risk practitioners and business professionals from multiple continents and industries, reconsider and address policy-oriented questions in relation to social, political, democratic, environmental, economic, security, technological, and geopolitical challenges. Across 5 distinctive Parts, The Handbook of Political Risk considers ethical risks, populism, weaponized interdependence, protectionism, company case, industries, and political risk management, while also reconsidering the future of political risk.
The volume will appeal to scholars and students of international business and management studies, political science, area studies, security studies, geography, history, and sociology. In the absence of functioning global governance to mitigate such risks, it will also be of great use to a range of consultants, investors, business practitioners, and corporations.

Recenzii
"In the era of polycrisis, European Union officials have been looking for the road to resilience. This road will not be found without being able to understanding and manage political risk. This volume offers pioneering analysis and will be an excellent guide for the builders of EU strategic autonomy."
László Andor, Former EU Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion (2010–2014)
"This Routledge handbook covers impressive conceptual ground, offers the reader some interesting country cases to work with, and applies political risk analysis to some of the existential problems that the world faces today. It will serve as a valuable reference point for all students of political risk, including long-established scholars and practitioners working in this area."
Amrita Narlikar, Distinguished Fellow, Observer Research Foundation
"Political risk assessment requires a myriad of skills and sensitivities be applied to analysis today and then completely reconsidered and recalculated tomorrow. The elusive skill of developing political acuity – understanding how the immediate context affects the decisions we make is made easier with this extensive review of theory and practice, ideas and evidence as well as real case analysis and reviews. A necessary and helpful companion for anyone trying to understand and calculate risk in an ever-changing world."
Peter P. Constantinou, PhD, School of Public Policy and Administration, York University; President and CEO, Political Acuity Institute
