This collection asks how we are to address the nuclear question in
a post-Cold War world. Rather than a temporary fad, Nuclear
Criticism perpetually re-surfaces in theoretical circles. Given the
recent events at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan, the
ripple of anti-nuclear sentiment the event created, as well as the
discursive maneuvers that took place in the aftermath, we might
pause to reflect upon Nuclear Criticism and its place in
contemporary scholarship (and society at-large).Scholars who were
active in earlier expressions of Nuclear Criticism converse with
emergent scholars likewise striving to negotiate the field moving
forward. This volume revolves around these dialogic moments of
agreement and departure; refusing the silence of complacency, the
authors renew this conversation while taking it in exciting new
directions. As political paradigms shift and awareness of nuclear
issues manifests in alternative forms, the collected essays
establish groundwork for future generations caught in a perpetual
struggle with legacies of the nuclear.
