Culture Theory May 2008 Chapter 2
Culture Theory (CT) Chapter 2 • • Impact on Safety Risk View Interaction with other Groups World View
Cultural Theory • Mary Douglas • Anthropologist • Observation of Societies – Threats – Social Structures – Ways of Life – Attitudes
Culture • Studied Life and Cultural Biases – Functional Explanation – Social Biases – Argued two principle axes: • Grid and Group
Risk by Culture:
Corporate Views
Views
Cultural Theory • Group: Degree of division between insiders and outsiders • Grid: (Regulation) Rules that relate one individual to another Regulation Group
Examples • Strong Grid /Strong Group (High) – Individuals Regulated for the sake of the group. – Heirarchist
Views of Nature • Fragile • Robust • Capricious (Erratic, impulsive, unpredictable)
Strong Grid, Strong Group • Roles are subscribed – gender and birth • Positional Rules • Groups are within larger groups Bernstein: Two family Examples: Modern Japanese British Middle-class Family
Hierarchist • • Social Sectors: Classes, castes, age groups Specialized Roles Larger and lasts longer Less internal conflict Well defined rules Experts Reliance on rules Regulation Tolerant within limits Group
Individuals • Group (Low) Grid/Regulation (Low) – Individuals than group – Lack of group mentality – Social classes negotiable – Transaction and transfer freely – Political laws to regulate individuals – Trial and error
Egalitarian • • High Group, Low Grid Strong bond Voluntary Associations Good of Group before individual Sensitive to high consequence risk Nature Fragile Small change will bring crashing down
Isolationist (fatalist) • • • High Reg, Low group Feel isolated Nature as random Little they can do No respect for other groups Random!
Hermit (Autonomous) • • Medium/Medium Withdraws from social interaction Autonomous Often ignored
Nature Views Random! Stable Tolerant within limits Fragile
Risk • Different Levels of Risk Views – Risk Adverse – Risk Procedures (Regulation) – Risk Takers – Risk Acceptors
Risk • Culture Theory can be used to predict risk responses – Risk Issues – Grid Coordinates

GRID EXERCISE Mountain Utilities wants to construct a 300 Megawatt Reactor in Gentle Valley to supply the electrical needs of the community. This community of people has Grown to over 400, 000 strong. Up to this point, the community has relied on other Power generating systems for their needs. If this was a hierarchal community, what would you expect would be their expectations? Concerns? Worries?
GRID EXERCISE #2 The thriving metropolis of Getter Done is made up mostly of Engineers And Ph. Ds. They have worked together for near 20 years in all kinds of Endeavors. An overseas company in conjunction with the NASA want to Establish a new antimatter storage and transfer system to support a new space Craft. The facility will store 100 cubic meters (100 m 3) of antimatter in pods Constructed of polyduranium. The leak rate of the tank is expected To be only <0. 0002 kg/day. How will the community respond?
Cultural Theory Grid • Uses: – Predict Risk Behavior? – Individual Behavior? – How they are in cultural roles
Our Organizations • Location on the Grid • Definitions – what does that mean? • Discussion.
Other Characteristics • Individual Characteristics – Gender – Race – Political Ideology – Personality Type
Biases • • Superiority of any Group? Limitations of the Groups Accuracy of the Group Each as a one view?
One View HH Servants Military Japan U. S? India Communal Sect Leaders

Nanotechnology • • • Carcinogenic Effects Long Term effects – Unknown Quantum Dots Single-wall Nanotubes MSDSs – Focus on materials not product

Basic Hazard Management
Relationships • • Related to Grid Accountability: High /High Training: High Threat - View of nature and risk

Risk… Cyclone at Myanmar • 100, 000 Dead

Social Amplification of Risk
Amplification • Risk – Actual Risk – Perceived Risk – Residual Risk – Risk Abatement
Amplification
Risk Analysis • Risk Linear?
Social Amplification of Risk • Transfer of Information • Social Response Mechanism
SARF • Risk – Benefit Analysis
Bell-Wether Events • Three Mile Island – Changed attitudes – Stricter Regulation – Public opposition (any technology)
Effects… • Move away (Globally) from Nuclear Power • Increased public concern on complex systems. • Public opposition to Nuclear power
Amplification Results in: • Economic - Move away from nuc power. • Judicial (New laws, regulations) • Social - Anti-nuclear groups
Other Events? bhopal Columbia Piper Alpha
Other Effects: • Attenuation of Risk – Radon – Smoking – Carcinogens
Social Amplification of Risk • Media? • News/Books? • Special Interest Groups?
SARF Increased Event Risk Decrease Filter 1 Decrease Filter 2 Elements? Chapter 2, section 2. 3. 2
SARF Communication Increased Event Risk Filter 1 Politics Risk Filter 2 Media
SARF • Transfer of information about Risk • Social Response mechanism COMMUNICATION!
SARF • Ripple Effect – True Risk? – Media – Politics
Four Risk Pathways • • Heuristics and Values - Simplify Group Relationships – influence responses Signal value – recognize high value Stigmatization – Create aversion
CT and Risk Interpret Formulate Validate Risk
High Signal Values • Outcome of the risk activity/operation • Public Reaction – a measure of signal
Signals • Radiation • Cancer • Fire
Debates • Provides information • Can cause Public Concern!
Seven Categories • • • Biocidal hazards Persistent delay hazards Rare Catastrophes Life-threatening Common Global Diffuse Rad hazards
Basic Risk Perception Model • BRPM, 2001 • Focuses on psychometric dimensions – Attitude, fear, worry, risk sensitivity, trust – Lifestyles, and world views.
Illustrative Interventions • Motorists and seat-belts – Likelihood of accidents – Consequence: killed or injured in crash
Risk Takers • Individual Differences • Thrill seekers • Sensation Seeking – (age, gender)
Political Approach to Risk • • Social Life Conflicting Goals Values, Chronic fear
Politics • Policy: risks…
Risk Resolution • Risk Resolution versus Risk Management • • Regulation Restriction Control Government Program
Regulation European Commission Questionnaire on Directive 96/82/EC on the Control of Major Accident Hazards involving dangerous substances (SEVESO II) 2000 – 2002: United Kingdom Response
View of Risk • • Risk Management is about Power Conflicts of interest Political Influence • Page 49, Text
Social-Emotional Risk • Risk = hazard + outrage – Cognitive side of Fear!
Risk and Technology • Modern Technology - Ritual Sacrifice
Three Acts • 1. Sudden – Bhopal • 2. Science response – Thalidomide • 3. Political – Ozone depletion, global warming
Adaptation and Risk Management • Cost-Benefit analysis • Behavior Adaption approach • Risk Management Approach
Rewarding/Incentives • Management Vigor – Continuous reminders • Reward the bottom line. • Reward attractiveness • Progress safety credits • List on Page 56
