Offers a range of scholarly perspectives on the international effect of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear meltdown four years out from the disaster. Grounded in the field of science, technology and society (STS) studies, a leading cast of international scholars from the Asia-Pacific, Eastern and Western Europe, and United States examine the extent and scope of the Fukushima effect and pay particular attention to national histories, debates and policy responses on nuclear power development. Topics covered include: safety of nuclear energy, radiation risk, nuclear waste management, development of nuclear energy vis-à-vis other energy options, anti-nuclear protest movements, nuclear power representations, and media representations of the effect.
