Risk is a tool for assessing the world in a measured way, quantifying and scaling the hazards it may hold. [It] requires a stable foundation as a baseline value. Established security zones in the form of built structures such as houses and embankments or – on an expanded scale – a resilient state constitution and jurisdiction, are the preconditions for perceiving the threatening feral outside as a risk. In the case of early seafaring, the basic security zone would be dry land itself, which facilitated a safe and steady foundation from which to assess the insecure, potentially threatening exterior.
