AbstractAbstract
[en] The terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 took place more than six years ago and happened far away, but for many people, time and distance simply cannot push aside the danger they represent. A study published by one of Germany's major insurance companies shows that public fears with respect to terrorist attacks rose in 2007 compared with 2006. With respect to nuclear terrorism, the expectation is that there is no overwhelming concern since there has been no nuclear attack so far. As it turns out, however, the contrary is true. The paper discusses how to deal with the public perception of nuclear terrorism, and ponders what the best strategy would be. (author)
