At the Atomic Age Symposium II: Fukushima on May 5, 2012, UChicago professor Robert Rosner offers his thoughts on the Fukushima disaster and the safety and communications issues related to the management of nuclear power. Rosner is the William E. Wrather Distinguished Service Professor in Astronomy & Astrophysics and Physics and the director of the Energy Policy Institute at Chicago (EPIC). Rosner previously served as Director of Argonne National Laboratory and is actively involved in efforts to promote nonproliferation.

Hiroaki Koide, nuclear reactor specialist and Assistant Professor at Kyoto University's Nuclear Research Institute, responds to Rosner's talk with his own arguments. The event was introduced by Michael Fisch, Assistant Professor in Anthropology.

This symposium was sponsored by the Committee on Japanese Studies, the Center for East Asian Studies, the Franke Institute for the Humanities, the Human Rights Program, and the Program on the Global Environment at the University of Chicago, and DePaul University.
