The foundations on which the concept of risk has been constructed are discussed. A description of Rubin's model of causal inference, which was first developed in the domain of applied statistics, and later incorporated into a branch of epidemiology, is taken as the starting point. Analysis of the premisses of causal inference brings to light the logical stages in the construction of the concept of risk, allowing it to be understood "from the inside". The abovementioned branch of statistics and epidemiology seeks to demonstrate that statistics can infer causality instead of simply revealing statistical associations; the model gives the basis for estimating that which way be defined as the effect of a cause. Using this procedural distinction ...
