Descripción
The precautionary principle has been proposed as a basis for making decisions about environmental issues but remains controversial. Using a model of inductively justified propositions about awareness, this paper shows how the precautionary principle may be interpreted as a heuristic guide for boundedly rational decisionmakers faced with the possibility of unfavorable surprises.
