The disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was an event of
obviously transnational significance-not only in the airborne
particulates it deposited across the Northern hemisphere, but in
the political and social repercussions it set off well beyond the
Soviet bloc. Focusing on the cases of Great Britain and France,
this innovative study explores the discourses and narratives that
arose in the wake of the incident among both state and nonstate
actors. It gives a thorough account of the stereotypes, framings,
and "othering" strategies that shaped Western European nations'
responses to the disaster, and of their efforts to come to terms
with its long-term consequences up to the present day.
