AB - The management of high-level nuclear waste can be described as a “wicked problem” in that it has caused severe social conflicts for long time. Germany has also experienced harsh confrontations and clashes between government and civil society organizations surrounding the high-level nuclear waste management. In an effort to overcome the stalemate in nuclear waste governance, German government announced a new nuclear waste governance based on public participation after Fukushima nuclear reactors’ accident in 2011 and has gone into action to realize it. The newly introduced participatory governance of nuclear waste in Germany has many differences from the past authoritarian and top-down style nuclear waste management even though not free from the criticism among some environment organizations. However the new participatory governance of nuclear waste is not well known and researched in Korean society regardless of its important implications to Korea. This paper aims to examine the new participatory governance of nuclear waste and debates around it in Germany, and discuss some implications and lessons to Korean society that has experienced significant social disputes regarding high-level nuclear waste management.
