The paper explores the impact of social movements on the societal perception of risks, focusing on the German anti-nuclear power movement. It emphasizes risk sociology, particularly through Niklas Luhmann's systems theory, and examines how societal communication shapes the construction of risks. The study addresses how this communication evolves when influenced by protest movements, ultimately applying these insights to the dynamics of the anti-AKW movement in Germany.
