The case studies of anti-nuclear movements in Haripur, Kudankulam and Kovvada demonstrate how the implementation of civil nuclear policy is also determined by the state's technical and financial capacity and effective international collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a focus on theorisation of social movements and their impact, combined with empirical studies of anti-nuclear movements, as well as the historical trajectory of civil nuclear development, the book adds a new prism to the study of India's civil nuclear policy and anti-nuclear opposition. It will be of interest to researchers working on social movements, state-society relations, energy studies and civil nuclear energy in the context of South Asia and the Global South.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Varigonda Kesava Chandra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367561468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367561468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 0.50d","brand":"Varigonda Kesava Chandra","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44056013701375,"sku":"9780367561468","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5b1111a1-4a01-41ce-ae3c-e9370dc281c3.jpg?v=1685039046","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/society-resistance-and-civil-nuclear-varigonda-kesava-chandra-9780367561468","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
