Definition
- The anti-nuclear movement is a social movement opposed to production of nuclear weapons and generation of electricity by nuclear power plants. It is often assumed that this perspective on the anti-nuclear movement has dominated since the early days of atomic power; however, the anti-nuclear movement has almost as long and contested a history as nuclear power itself.
