Tracing the atom :nuclear legacies in Russia and Central Asia

---

This book brings together scholarship in history of Eastern Europe with inter-disciplinary inquiries drawing on social anthropology, science and technology studies (STS), and studies of literary and artistic productions. Conceptualizing this multidisciplinary volume, we foregrounded different modes and scales of tracing: from the analysis of nuclear imaginaries and memorializations to studies of radiation expertise; from tracking nuclear supply chains to recon-structing the atom’s epistemic, institutional, and legal heritage; from artists’ engagements with radioactive matter through radiophotograms to the tracing of residual radionuclides in environmental health sciences.This volume took its point of departure at the workshop “Nuclear Landscapes in Eastern Europe and Asia. Knowledge – Practices – Social Change,” held at Heidelberg University, Germany in December 2014. The editors wish to thank Laura Sembritzki for her support in organizing and coordinating the symposium, which brought together several contributors to this volume. Many thanks to all participants, presenters and discussants at the Heidelberg workshop – Melanie Arndt, Klaus Gestwa, Olga Kuchinskaya, Elena Maltseva, Eglė Rindzevičiūtė, Magdalena Stawkowski, Hiroko Takahashi – for their insightful and inspiring contributions and comments. As the work continued, the volume benefited from further academic exchange within the networks of the project “Nuclear Technopolitics in the Soviet Union,” funded by German Research Foundation (https://nuctechpol.org).Many thanks to Steven Lindberg for translating Eva Castringius’ con-tribution from German to English. We thank Joshua R. Kroeker for his translation of Olga Nikonova’s chapter from Russian to English as well as for comprehensive proofreading of the book manuscript. We thank Elias Hansen, Nils Jochum, Martina Langhals, Paula Simon, and Elisa Zielmann for their support in compiling the index.We would like to thank the Excellence Initiative of Ruprecht Karls University Heidelberg, the Goethe University Frankfurt, and the German Research Foundation (DFG) for their funding contributions. The open-access publication was supported by funding from the University of Heidelberg and the University of Oslo.Preface and Acknowledgments
