Zusammenfassung:1. Managing the nuclear legacies2. The United States nuclear factories -- 3. Public stakeholders: what we know and expect -- 4. CRESP surveys of major US Department of Energy Environmental Management Site Regions and of the National Population, 2005-2010 -- 5. Impact of the Fukushima events on public preferences and perceptions in the United States, 2011 -- 6. Nuclear Waste Management: building a foundation to enhance trust.
"Nuclear Waste Management, Nuclear Power and Energy Choices: Public Preferences, Perceptions and Trust presents a theoretical base for public reactions then classifies and reviews the large body of surveys carried out over the past decade. Particular focus is placed on residents within 50 miles US nuclear waste facilities due to the disproportionate presence of nuclear factors in their lives such as the legacy of nuclear waste disposal and job dependency. The motivations and reasons for their views such as fear, attraction to the economic benefits, trust of site managers and federal agencies, cultural views, personal history, and demographic attributes of the people are also considered to provide a balanced and detailed overview."--
