Nuclear Cultural Heritage
This article surveys literature and practices relating to nuclear cultural heritage to provide a state-of-the-art review of the field. It focuses on nuclear cultural heritage as it relates to the decommissioning of civil nuclear sites, primarily in Lithuania, Sweden and the United Kingdom, showing that it is a fast-growing and interdisciplinary field. It places nuclear cultural heritage within the wider heritage context before outlining the chall…
Nuclear Geographies and Nuclear Issues
Nuclear geographies and geographers contemplate the significance of nuclear technologies and issues for humans, nonhumans, and ecologies in the past, present, and future. This definition highlights how radiation interacts across different scales and mobilities by considering the significance of their relations to humans, nonhumans, ecologies, and materialities. The field brings together diverse geographical approaches to understand nuclear medici…
Dounreay

From the outset of the project the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority knew that it would have to import specialist technical staff into an area economically driven by agriculture and fishing. This resulted in a distinct…
