The reactor accident of Chernobyl and its consequences
Creators
Description
The world has not changed but gained one more, however bitter, experience since the reactor accident of Chernobyl. Much has been written and published about its consequences and the damage caused by it. Its only benefit may be considered to be consisting in another international revision of the allegedly exemplary and worldwide accepted safety of our reactors and in future rigorous political efforts to be going into internationally accepted and applied safety concepts preventing another accident of that kind. National efforts alone will lead to nothing. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Die Welt ist seit dem Reaktorunfall von Tschernobyl nicht anders, sondern um eine, wenn auch bittere Erfahrung reicher geworden. Viel ist ueber den dadurch ausgeloesten Schaden geschrieben worden. Fragt man nach dem Nutzen, dann kann es nur der sein, die weltweit als vorbildlich anerkannten Sicherheitsmassnahmen unserer Kernreaktoren im eigenen Land erneut zu ueberpruefen und alle politischen Moeglichkeiten auszuschoepfen, auch international zu Sicherheitskonzepten zu gelangen, die von allen anerkannt und angewendet werden, so dass sich ein derartiger Unfall nicht wiederholen kann. Nationale Alleingaenge nutzen hier nichts. (orig.)Additional details
