Unmaking the Bomb: Environmental Cleanup and the Politics of Impossibility Volume 14 Cram Shannon
What does it mean to reckon with a contaminated world? Blending history, ethnography, and memoir, she investigates remediation efforts at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation, a former weapons complex in Washington State. In Unmaking the Bomb, Shannon Cram considers the complex social politics of this question and the regulatory infrastructures designed to answer it.
Cram examines the embodied uncertainties and structural impossibilities integral to that endeavor. Home to the majority of the nation's high-level nuclear waste and its largest environmental cleanup, Hanford is tasked with managing toxic materials that will long outlast the United States and its institutional capacities. In particular, this lyrical book engages in a kind of narrative contamination, toggling back and forth between cleanup's administrative frames and the stories that overspill them.
