Engaging the Atom (Kaijser, Lehtonen, Meyer, Rubio-Varas, 2021)

The edited volume Engaging the Atom: The History of Nuclear Energy and Society in Europe from the 1950s to the Present (Morgantown, WV: West Virginia University Press, 2021) successfully brings together sociologists and historians to study the public engagement with nuclear power in Europe from the 1950s to the present. With their study, the authors show the diversity and complexity of the pro- and antinuclear stances in various European countries, shedding light on the different pathways these countries followed in the nuclear energy transition.
