International law and radioactive waste management

Abstract

Thesis focuses on international law progresses about radioactive waste management risks’ control, taking into account specificity of these wastes in the frame of nuclear activity. These progresses ended up at a maturity of the provisions of the numerous treaties connected to radioactive waste management, and at a complementarity between the different concerned branches of international law. The dissertation insists on provisions concerning final disposal of wastes, with the problem of risk’s persistence on as long periods as several millenniums (justice to future generations). Provisions of European Union law concerning radioactive wastes are scrutinized to assess their originality and their contribution to risks’ control in Member States. International law solutions to prevent risks are examined in the following fields: - nuclear safety, including international environmental law concerning prevention of waste pollution, namely marine pollution; - nuclear security to avoid nuclear terrorism; - nuclear weapons non proliferation; - compensation of nuclear damages in case of accidents due to radioactive wastes, especially in final repositories.
