Ambivalences of the risk
The purpose of this article is to recall the ambivalence and complexity of the notion of risk. Individual existence oscillates between vulnerability and security, risk and prudence. Because existence is never given in advance, it is accompanied by the taste of life that recalls the flavour of everything. Do not take a risk is no less a risk, that of being stiffened, swallowed by routine. It is to doom oneself to never changing things even if they are not the best ones - for example to stay in a state of subjection or misery, to be powerless to invent oneself.
