Mobilizing Nuclear Bias: The Fukushima Nuclear Crisis and the Politics of Uncertainty　核に纏わる疑念を動員 福島原発危機と不確実性の政治学 | The Asia-Pacific Journal

The nuclear disaster in Fukushima which followed in the wake of the 3/11 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami has given rise to one of the most significant public health crises in modern world history, with profound implications for how nuclear energy is perceived. This paper analyzes the most dire phase of the Fukushima nuclear crisis, showing how the level of risk was assessed by nuclear experts and state-level actors who worked largely out of view of public scrutiny.
