The Meanings of a Disaster is a meticulously researched, readable, and intelligently argued analysis of over two decades' worth of Chernobyl discourse in France and Britain. Sonja Schmid, Virginia Tech As a follow-up to her skillful study of discourses around nuclear power and radiation protection in France following the Chernobyl disaster, Karena Kalmbach has provided a fresh look at the problem in transnational and comparative perspective. Her argument is well-grounded, based on broad evidence, and embedded within a clear and effective conceptual framework. Anna Veronika Wendland, Herder Institute for Historical Research on East Central Europe
