Civil commot ion is a kind of civil disobedience movement by the people which is serious and prolonged compared to riot . Usually, the insurance companies w ill not make good any loss happening by any civil commot ion. The f ire policies and other property insurance policies contain a clause except ing the loss caused f rom a civil commot ion. (ht tp://def init ions.uslegal.com)

India: Sim ilar to one used in English law, no requirem ent of force , vio lence or tum ult
Turkey: „…concerted cessat ion by workers of their work with the object of halt ing the act ivit ies of a given establishment or of paralysing such act ivit ies to a considerable extent , or any abandonment by workers of their work in accordance with a decision taken to that ef fect by an organisat ion…”

SRCC - Conclusion
Engineering insurance mainly refers to tangible assets (designed, measured, calculated or set into operat ion, constructed, etc.) where risk and exposures are well known (probabilist ic NatCat modelling, experience based models etc.).
For SRCC the Underwriter must : − ga in knowledge on the exposure ,− “pred ict” possib le risk changes fo r the whole coverage pe riod , and − fo rmula te a coverage concept which cou ld presumably “make” the
risk insurab le
In a world o f uncerta in ty, how can one : − assess the vo la t ility o f human na ture , − est ima te the t riggering factors which can cause an ou tburst o f socia l
instab ility
and a ll th is th roughout a p ro ject ’s life span which may last fo r severa l yea rs?
