“Cindynics: The Science of Danger [article title]”

“[W]e have⟳ continued in the four directions announced in 1994: […] The transfer⟳ of road safety concepts to other modes of transport⟳ and vice-versa (e.g., secondary safety applied to guided transport⟳, the introduction of cindynics and anthropotechnics in road vehicles).”

“Researchers in cindynics (danger science) have⟳ also brought the notion of vulnerability closer to that of "space of danger"[…], which is defined as a set⟳ of organizational conditions that make⟳ a system prone to break-up and disasters.”

“The cindynics approach⟳ therefore primarily monitors the fragility of collective activity situations, that is, the emergence of dangerous zones […] within an organization, thus weakening its capacity for resilience.”
