The Role of error in organizing behaviour / Jens Rasmussen

Sumario: Work in modern high-tech societies calls for a consideration of the notion of human error: research should be focused on a general understanding of human behaviour and social interaction in cognitive terms in complex, dynamic environments not on fragments of behaviour called "error". This approach has similarities to the "risk homeostasis" theories of traffic safety, with the reservation that the controlling mechanisms are adaptation in a wider sense than control overned by criteria related to risk
