Abstract
Economics is not psychology, nor is it meant to be. But there is no escaping the psychological issues that run through economic risk theory. Likewise, psychological risk theory is bound by its economic origins. These common threads are nowhere more in need of unraveling than in the debate between the French and the American schools of risk theory.
