From the publication:
Introduction There seems to be some agreement, at least in some developed countries, that nuclear power is especially unpopular among energy sources. It is further assumed that unless and until this unpopularity can be overcome, nuclear power will not flourish, even if the case for it do so on other grounds were to be strong. It has proved particularly difficult in many countries to find new sites for nuclear facilities. In addition, there are some fears about nuclear installations in neighbouring countries (for example, Austrian concerns about the Temelin plant in the Czech Republic, and Irish objections to Sellafield in the UK).
