Confronting the challenges of nuclear power governance, this book
provides pathways to nuclear safety cooperation between countries
in East Asia where regional cooperation is challenged by
geopolitical tensions. The book is split into three parts: first
looking at nuclear risk and safety communications, second on
nuclear policy and harmonization of safety standards, and third a
comparative analysis of nuclear regulatory agencies in East Asia.
Taken as a whole, the contributors recommend the establishment of a
nuclear safety system that allows for mutual verification of safety
standards at the regional level, as well as a regulatory framework
with international credibility which will help standardize risk
communication. They suggest that the exchange of experiences
involving nuclear power plant safety, efforts towards common safety
standards, safety management and collaborative efforts between
Japan, China, and South Korea are extremely urgent issues. By
comparing the European system of nuclear governance with that of
East Asia, the book highlights the need for nuclear safety
organizations in East Asia to strengthen interconnections and build
regional linkages. This book will be of interest to policymakers,
academics as well as researchers in the field of energy policy,
energy economics, nuclear safety, nuclear governance and nuclear
engineering.
This book looks at institutional reforms for the use of energy,
water and resources toward a sustainable future in East Asia. The
book argues that developments in the East Asian region are critical
to global sustainability and acknowledges that there is an
increasing degree of mutual reliance among countries in East Asia -
primarily China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. It analyzes environmental
impacts stemming from the use of energy, water and mineral
resources via economic development in East Asia in the medium to
long term (through 2050) through theoretical and empirical
modelling. The book also evaluates the ripple effects of
environmental and resource policies on each country's economy and
clarifies the direction of institutional reform in energy systems,
resources and water use for a sustainable future.
