The Benefits and Costs of Disclosing Information about Risks: What Do We Know about Right‐to‐Know?

抄録

<jats:p>Following the attacks of September 11, 2001, the Environmental Protection Agency and other government agencies removed information from their websites that they feared could invite attacks on critical public and private infrastructure. Accordingly, the benefits and costs of environmental information disclosure programs have come under increasing scrutiny.
