,Introduction: Setting the Problem(s), |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
Deep geological repositories of nuclear waste, long-term landfills of special waste and the substantive storage of carbon dioxide to relieve the world’s climate from excessive system change are intricate and contentious policy fields with an impact of decades to hundreds of thousands of years. The present work aims to explore how society and technology can tread and build sustainable paths—in the long run—to cope with the issues.

,Integrative Technology Assessment—Proposal for a Framework, |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
Before needs and goals can be addressed (Chap. .), an inventory of the total technology system in question—call it stocktaking—must be made. Carbon capture and storage, CCS, highlights the tension between the advantage of a short-term “quick fix” and the disadvantage posed by the risk of long-term leakage and, from a technology policy perspective, the danger of perpetuating carbon lock-in. In an exemplary way, this chapter assesses CCS against criteria taken from the controversial and long-lasting governance of radio-active waste. As the dimensions covered by this issue are manifold and intertwined, there is no “one” methodology with which to analyse it (such as a technology assessment of the n-th order). Instead, cross-disciplinary investigations make it possible to draw lessons from contentious long-term environmental issues and social science research, which is necessary before embarking on this route on a large scale. The outcome is a proposed framework for a system analysis (Chap. .), as a base for the envisaged Strategic Monitoring (Chap. .).

,Goals—Needs, Rules and Procedures, |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
Following the framework of Chap. ., the necessity to deploy a programme (in waste management) has to be shown. Section . is on goals, in a novel and productive way in the sense that the buzzword “sustainable development” (Sect. .) is “deconstructed” (passive protection vs. active intervention) and areas of “consensus” and “compromise”, respectively, are identified. This is useful as the three mentioned waste disposal systems indisputably are highly controversial, almost intractable, sociotechnical issues. All the more, it is pivotal to proceed in a comprehensive, transparent and participative manner. The chapter suggests fundamental rules to follow, based on an amplified notion of sustainable development, to eventually find “common ground” (with a common goal) to reach respective long-lasting “solutions”.

,Risk Characteristics and Evolution of (Risk and Safety) Concepts, |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
Basics of any policy analysis are the description of the characteristics of the respective waste systems, fulfilling the requirement of criterion #3, “Total-System Analysis and Safety Concept” (Sect. .). The interplay of aspects of nuclear and conventional toxic (“special”) waste as well as carbon dioxide storage, CCS, is investigated, using a novel integrated system assessment: material and system characteristics, risk assessment and regulatory approaches. The goal is to create profiles of strengths and weaknesses of waste systems that are similar in their risk characteristics but dealt with differently in risk management and regulation. A further objective is to draw lessons from the comparison of different discourses and procedures of waste with a similar profile with regard to decision-making processes (the reasons for different regulations of all three waste systems are not investigated here).

,Systems, Governance and Institutions, |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
The standard (technical) robustness concept (of Chap. .) is enlarged by societal and institutional, including regulatory, aspects, and then amplified by the more dynamic notion of “resilience” and “adaptiveness”, followed by an analysis of processes and procedures in all three policy areas under scrutiny: radioactive waste, conventional hazardous waste and carbon storage CCS. The approach culminates in turning over the concept of “governance” to the applications, thus establishing a framework for the intended “Strategic Monitoring”.

,Strategic Monitoring, |
Thomas Flüeler |
|
Abstract
Sustainable management of all waste fields discussed here is long term, longsome and long-standing. Strategic Monitoring is devised to see that the corresponding programmes are on track and duly implemented. It is their ongoing designing, planning, reflecting and implementing in parallel, and this along with the principles of “good governance”: participatory, consensus-oriented, accountable, transparent, responsive, effective and efficient, equitable and inclusive and following the rule of law.

Abstract
Deep geological repositories of nuclear waste, long-term landfills of other hazardous waste and the substantive storage of carbon dioxide to relieve the world’s climate from excessive system change are intricate and contentious policy fields with an impact of decades to hundreds of thousands of years. The present work aims to explore how society and technology can set up and implement sustainable ways—in the long run—to cope with the issues. They are long-term safety issues and require long-term institutional involvement of the technoscientific community, waste producers, public administrators, non-governmental organisations, NGOs and the public. The demonstration of long-term safety is challenging and monitoring may contribute to substantiate evidence, support decision making and legitimise the programme. What, where and when to monitor is determined by its goal setting. Strategic Monitoring as proposed contributes to the process, implementation or policy and institutional surveillance to sustain a once launched programme. It includes the tailored transfer of knowledge, concept and system understanding, experience and documentation to specific audiences mentioned above. It is an i
