Living Through Uncertainty and Insecurity

How to Deal with People in Unpredictable Life and Health Situations?

by Thomas Hax-Schoppenhorst / Jürgen Georg

Description

Uncertainty manifests itself in local and everyday life contexts, but also in the global biodiversity, the coronavirus pandemic and climate crises as well as the wars of these days. Since nothing seems to be as certain as uncertainty anymore, it is about to become the defining phenomenon of our time. In this context, uncertainty and insecurity also frequently occur in connection with acute and chronic health situations. The authors define and differentiate the concepts of uncertainty, insecurity and risk and illuminate their facets from a nursing, medical, sociological, psychological, and theological perspective.
