"The management of radioactive waste in Europe and elsewhere has been the subject of continuous legal and political challenges, both in courtrooms and by environmental groups in the field. Public concern was and is often considerable. Somewhat remarkable perhaps, the management of radioactive waste has not received the attention in academic literature it so very much seems to deserve.

This book discusses and critically analyzes in detail how the Euratom regime functions in respect to such an important part of the management of radioactive waste. It critically analyzes the applicable instruments of Euratom law, the relevant jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice, as well as some salient developments in national and international law."--
