  This research employs a multi-disciplinary approach by developing a model that draws upon psychometric, cultural, and reflexive modernization perspectives of risk perception. Using data from a 1999 national telephone survey, we tested our model on three food risks— pesticides, Salmonella, and fat. Results showed that perceptions of risks do vary by the nature of the risk investigated. Consistent with the psychometric perspective, the level of kno…

  When first proposed in this country during the 1970s, waste-to-energy (WTE) incinerators appeared to be ideal solutions to the growing mounds of trash in our throw-away society.

Within a decade, however, a grassroots anti-incineration movement emerged as a vibrant offshoot of the envi…

  Arguing for the usefulness of an analytic distinction between equity and technology movements, this paper examines two siting disputes involving modern incinerators and asks why one was eventually built and the other defeated. Relevant variables for the analysis are identified from the contemporary social movement literature and a special industry report. After an initial focus on surveys of “backyard” residents and “NIMBYs” at the two proposed s…
