| Sumari: | The work “Society’s Contributions to Risk Reduction in Vulnerable Populations” has 14 chapters, reflecting on specific cases of populations at risk. There are four content cores that give the work a unique character. The first concerns the bidirectional relationship between the issue of poverty and conflict, as well as the discussion established around the establishment of what is understood to be the profile of so-called vulnerable populations. The second core of content links the issues of risk, vulnerability, catastrophe, and compensatory measures, revealing different views from law, sociology, economics, and finance (insurance). The third refers to the Portuguese reality, considering pressing issues such as forest fires, gentrification and touristification of urban areas, or civic participation. Finally, the fourth core of content deals with the reality of Latin America, discussing the issue of vulnerability in particular population groups, such as Afro-descendant women, garbage collectors, rural workers and social contexts of poverty. |
