食品安全風險的社會放大及其法制因應之道

Social Amplification of Risk and Legal Countermeasure on Food Safety

1988年，Kasperson及其合作者創立的“風險的社會放大框架”以風險的社會屬性為基礎，揭示了風險在傳播過程中的放大過程。通過分析“三鹿奶粉事件”，可以發現該分析框架對食品安全風險放大具有解釋力。為應對食品安全風險的社會放大，不能止於食品安全風險交流制度，而應當構建以多重食品安全風險為對象的風險評估法律制度，構建靈活多元的食品安全風險管理法律制度，探索食品安全風險社會放大的法制因應之道。

The social amplification of risk framework(SARF) proposed by Kasperson and its collaborators in 1988, based on the social characteristics of risk, has revealed the very process of amplification of risk during its transmission of information. By analyzing the “San Lu milk powder scandal”, the SARF was found to be highly interpretative towards the amplification of risk in the field of food safety. In response to such amplification of risk, it is necessary not to only rely on risk communications, instead should build a legal system for multiple food safety risks, which requires risk assessment as well as flexible and diversified risk management.
