Given the recent development of a so-called geography of natural hazards, the notion of natural hazards has been given different definitions, which all try, not always without contradictions, to solve the dilemma posed by the hazard/ vulnerability opposition. This paper discusses the epistemological issues raised by those definitions, whose evolution is better accounted for by using a method derived from the system analysis of risk in geography. It has lead us to propose a redefinition of risk through an integrative notion of damaging. Likewise, the relevance of a posteriori phenomenological approach is noted, in spite of the numerous difficulties which arises when dealing with the damage evidences that are essential to this method.Poursuiv...
