The 1986 Chernobyl catastrophe was not only a human and ecological
disaster, but also a political-ideological one, severely
discrediting Soviet governance and galvanizing dissidents in the
Eastern Bloc. In the case of Poland, what began as isolated
protests against the Soviet nuclear site grew to encompass domestic
nuclear projects in general, and in the process spread across the
country and attracted new segments of society. This innovative
study, combining scholarly analysis with oral histories and other
accounts from participants, traces the growth and development of
the Polish anti-nuclear movement, showing how it exemplified the
broader generational and cultural changes in the nation's
opposition movements during the waning days of the state socialist
era.
