 Free Download Daniel Poneman, "Nuclear Power in the Developing World " English | ISBN: 1032602201 | 2023 | 268 pages | PDF | 16 MB Nuclear Power in the Developing World (1982) explores the issue of nuclear power policies in developing countries. The sharp oil price rises of the 1970s attracted widespread attention to nuclear power as an alternative energy source, while some developing countries began attaining the technological ability to develop nuclear weapons programmes. While the search for energy should not be thwarted, the quest for nuclear weapons should not be promoted. The tension between these two goals has often led to confused export policies in the nuclear supplier nations. The author attacks this confusion at its source by examining first-hand the motives which drive nuclear policies in the developing world. He explores how security and economic objectives, domestic policies and foreign influence shape nuclear policies, enriching his analysis with examples from South American, African and Asian experiences. This volume also takes into account those without active nuclear programmes, to better understand how such programmes are born. This approach demonstrates that countries such as India, Pakistan and Argentina entertain different priorities from countries such as Brazil, Taiwan and the Philippines in promoting nuclear power.  Free Download Abdullah Al Faruque, "Nuclear Energy Regulation, Risk and The Environment " English | ISBN: 0367585197 | 2020 | 194 pages | PDF | 2 MB Analyzing the impact and benefits of nuclear energy on environment, this book examines nuclear treaties in relation to environmental protection, highlights legal framework on non-proliferation and denuclearization, explores treaties on nuclear safety and nuclear security, discusses legal regimes on management of nuclear wastes, assesses the third-party liability regime and discusses the role of IAEA, EURATOM and NEA in regulating nuclear energy. It explores nuclear energy in the context of climate change and sustainable development. This book also examines the international legal framework on notification, assistance and emergency preparedness in the event of nuclear accidents, considers legal aspects of decommissioning of nuclear power plants and main legislative trends on nuclear energy use in selected countries. It also addresses regulatory responses to nuclear energy in the wake of the Fukushima power plant nuclear accident in Japan.

Friedman, "Nuclear Energy: Boom, Bust, and Emerging Renaissance" English | ISBN: 0198925786 | 2025 | 288 pages | PDF | 13 MB Questions of energy policy are among the most central and consequential of any confronting society today. While the role of nuclear energy is key, there is little understanding and much misinformation regarding its nature and its potential. Impeding the emergence of informed discourse on this topic is the lack of clear, objective information. Nuclear Energy: Boom, Bust and Emerging Renaissance helps answer the question of "What role can nuclear energy play in meeting the global warming challenge?"  Free Download Richard Hindmarsh, "Nuclear Disaster at Fukushima Daiichi " English | ISBN: 1138833274 | 2014 | 250 pages | PDF | 2 MB Nuclear Disaster at Fukushima Daiichi is a timely and groundbreaking account of the disturbing landscape of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear meltdown amidst an earthquake and tsunami on Japan's northeast coastline on March 11, 2011. It provides riveting insights into the social and political landscape of nuclear power development in Japan, which significantly contributed to the disaster; the flawed disaster management options taken; and the political, technical, and social reactions as the accident unfolded. In doing so, it critically reflects on the implications for managing future nuclear disasters, for effective and responsible regulation and good governance of controversial science and technology, or technoscience, and for the future of nuclear power itself, both in Japan and internationally.

Free Download Miriam Cullen, "Nordic Approaches to Climate-Related Human Mobility " English | ISBN: 1032608994 | 2025 | 160 pages | EPUB | 3 MB Academic discussion of climate‑related human mobility has understandably focused on the places where people are especially vulnerable to climate‑related harm: the Global South. Yet, the unique biophysical, legal and socio‑political characteristics of the Nordic region, as well as its roles as both 'home' and 'host' to climate‑related mobilities, justify its independent attention. Filling this lacuna, this collection is the first to address climate‑related human mobility in the Nordic region. It is a timely and much needed collection, which brings together leading and emerging voices from both academia and practice in a single volume, spanning policy and geographical breadth. Its chapters cover both regional approaches to the global phenomenon of climate mobility, such as the traditional role of the Nordic states as norm entrepreneurs and their representation in multilateral fora, and on‑the‑ground climate impacts unique to this region and their localised responses. Case studies include judicial decision‑making as it relates to climate‑related migration, insights into the local communication of climate risk, changes to Nordic development and climate policy, as well as climate‑related mobilities of Nordic Indigenous Peoples. |
