- Abstract
In this article we intend to show that security and efficiency in the production of energy from nuclear power stations is an important discursive component which is mounted on a scientific truth built by experts on nuclear energy. In the article we will attempt to show the joints and linkages in the arena of social power of a discourse produced by experts that legitimates nuclear power generation. Based on analysis of newspaper articles, scientific papers and the corporate site of the National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA), we aim to expose the construction of this discourse in Argentina. Thus, we assume that the truth is the product of struggles and conflicts within specific power relations-definition (Beck, 2008) and conclude that a nuclear lobby has achieved an effective staging that excludes risks and that links the economic efficiency of this industry.
