- We look at how narratives have emerged and evolved throughout its history.
- The analysis reveals a systemic inconsistency between perception and experience.
- Nuclear power is irresponsive to negative feedbacks and new narratives.
- Nuclear power can be seen as a belief-based practice explaining its controversy.
