Overcoming the framing problem-a critical-ethical perspective on the need to integrate social sciences and humanities and stakeholder contributions in EURATOM radiation protection research.

Journal of radiological protection : official journal of the Society for Radiological Protection

Meskens G.
PMID: 27272339
J Radiol Prot. 2016 Jun;36(2):S1-S7. doi: 10.1088/0952-4746/36/2/S1. Epub 2016 Jun 06.

This paper introduces the 'framing problem' as the problem of the limited potential of critical reflection on the societal justification and use of nuclear energy technology as a contribution to European radiation protection research, given that the research is...
