Descrizione del progetto:
FusEUrope is a multidisciplinary analysis of the history of techno-scientific cooperation in nuclear fusion energy research for pacific uses in Europe in relation to the process of European political integration, from its early phases at EURATOM in 1957 up to the establishment of ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) in 2007. The results of the historical & epistemological analyses will be used to frame a multi-national survey in five EU countries on the public acceptability of controlled thermonuclear which will identify policy recommendations the EU level.
Nuclear fusion is considered a future viable solution for a sustainable provision of large amounts of energy with relatively minor environmental impact, and historians have claimed nuclear fusion research to be central in the European integration process.
