PERMACRISIS, CLIMATE CHANGE AND SOCIETY. TOWARDS A FRAMEWORK FOR ANALYSIS: RISK PERCEPTION COMPONENT

The paper discusses the relevance of incorporating risk perception assessment into the analysis of the impact of climate change on the societal dimension of national security. The objective is to develop a framework for analysis that will provide a coherent basis for future strategies and policies in this area. In order to address this issue, it is first necessary to acknowledge that climate change is just one of a number of phenomena and events contributing to the global permacrisis that causes stress and anxiety to the population. The second section of the paper presents a review of the relevant literature. Our aim is to determine whether it is appropriate to assess the risk perception in this context. Having conducted an assessment based on existing surveys, we will then draw conclusions on the essential elements of a framework for analysing climate change-related risks.
