Deliberative Democracy for the Future
Genevieve Fuji Johnson proposes that only deliberative democracy contains convincing conceptions of the good, justice, and legitimacy that provide for the justifiable resolution of debates about the moral foundations of public policy.

Risk and Decisions about Disposition of Transuranic and High-Level Radioactive Waste
The U.S.Department of Energy (DOE) manages dozens of sites across the nation that focus on research, design, and production of nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors for defense applications.Radioactive wastes at these sites pose a national challenge, and DOE is considering how to most effectively clean them up.

Scenario Development Methods and Practice
Analysis of the long-term safety of radioactive waste repositories, using performance assessment and other tools, is required prior to implementation. The initial stage in developing a repository safety assessment is the identification of all factors that may be relevant to the long-term safety of the repository and their combination to form scenarios. This must be done in a systematic and transparent way in order to assure the regulatory authorities that nothing important has been forgotten. This report is a review of developments in scenario methodologies based on a large body of practical experience in safety assessments. It will be of interest to radioactive waste management experts as well as to other specialists involved in the development of scenario methodologies.

Déchets Nucléaires
Faut-il avoir peur des déchets nucléaires ? Sont-ils vraiment, comme le pense une partie du public, ce fardeau empoisonné ingérable faisant peser une menace fatale sur nous-mêmes et sur nos descendants ? Ou sont-ils au contraire, comme l'estime la grande majorité des scientifiques, des résidus que l'on sait fort bien conditionner et.

Management of Uncertainty in Safety Cases and the Role of Risk
These workshop proceedings discuss different approaches to treating uncertainties in safety cases for radioactive waste management facilities, and more specifically how concepts of risk can be used in both post-closure safety cases and regulatory evaluations. This report includes a synthesis of the plenary presentations and the discussions that took place during the workshop. These proceedings will be of interest to waste repository safety assessors and managers.

Gas Generation and Migration in Radioactive Waste Disposal
In underground repositories for radioactive waste, significant quantities of gases may be generated as a result of several processes. The potential impact of gas generation, accumulation and migration on the performances of the various barriers and, ultimately, on the long-term safety of a repository, should therefore be assessed in the development of safety cases for underground repositories. It was in this context that the EC and the NEA organised a workshop on \"Gas Generation, Accumulation and Migration in Underground Repository Systems for Radioactive Waste: Safety-relevant Issues\" in Reims, France on 26-28 June 2000. This book includes the texts of the invited presentations, the reports of the deliberations held in the five working groups, as well as the main conclusions of the workshop.
