This investigative analysis studies why key European countries
responded differently to the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, and what
can be learned from it. The author details why the accident was
defined differently in various countries, why actions were or were
not taken, and what was learned about the management of nuclear
risk. Furthermore, Liberatore studies the short-term and long-term
responses and consequences of Chernobyl not only in specific
countries, but within the European Union as a whole. Liberatore
also provides a policy communication model to illustrate the
interaction among the key personnel in such incidents: the
scientists, the politicians, the interest groups, and the mass
media. The author's focus upon uncertainty managementis a
compelling account for all who seek to understand and improve the
practical management of transboundary risks.
