The Anti-Nuclear Power Movement and Discourses of Energy Justice
critically analyzes the movement for a carbon-free and nuclear-free
energy future in the U.S. using an environmental justice framework.
Jesse P. Van Gerven explores how different social and environmental
justice discourses are constructed through the claims of social
movement organizations. This study shows how ideas of distribution,
recognition, and representation structure the arguments made by
anti-nuclear groups against the production of nuclear power.
Through critical analyses of the claims made by the anti-nuclear
power movement in the U.S., as well as analyses of the historical
and structural context these claims emerged from, the author
identifies general principals of energy justice. These principles
can help guide future energy policy and energy system development
to ensure social and environmental justice.
