Description

High-level nuclear waste (HLW) remains one of the most controversial and risky issues facing modern society. As we look toward the next 100 years, the management of this waste will require constant policy decisions and complex value assessments. This Routledge publication examines the necessity of creating systems that are physically safe, technologically stable, and socio-economically sustainable. Managing HLW is a task that must be completed within a society that is simultaneously stable and in a state of rapid flux. This book explores how global factors, national politics, and private interests influence the decisions made by governments and the nuclear industry. It addresses the difficult challenge of how to codify the responsibilities of various stakeholders in an increasingly connected world. Whether you are studying environmental engineering, civil engineering, or public policy, this text provides a necessary look at the long-term requirements for nuclear waste oversight. It offers a perspective on how to navigate the political and social pressures that shape environmental safety and technological stability on a global scale.
