Claiming centrality (why this field of study is important) †

  • Very explicitly now, energy policy is addressing environmental issues and energy conservation has come to be regarded as an important element of environmental policy (Fukasaku, 1995). [Lee and Koh, 2002, p.1151]
  • According to the current situation, concern for environmental preservation has increased the demand for more efficient management and environmentally sound and sustainable development of nuclear energy. [Lee and Koh, 2002, p.1151]
  • Thus, the problem of how to manage spent fuel in the interim, before a permanent solution is agreed upon, is an important issue for all countries that use nuclear power. [Macfarlane, 2001, p.1379]

Define a research problem by: †

Indicating a gap †

  • ... the lack of domestic energy resources; however, it has not yet determined the nuclear energy policy relating to recycling or direct disposal of spent nuclear fuels. So it is necessary to develop and apply an appropriate environmental management tool ... . [Lee and Koh, 2002, p.1151]

Raising a question †

Continuing a previously developed line of inquiry †

Counter-claiming (disagreeing with an existing/accepted approach) †

Propose a solution by: †

Outlining purpose/setting objectives †

  • For that, a systematic research process is needed. This article is part of that process. [Galtung, 1990, p.291]

Announcing principal findings (results) †

Indicating the structure of the research †

Indicating directions for further research †

  • One place to start would be to clarify 'cultural violence' by searching for its negation. [Galtung, 1990, p.291]
↑

Indicating benefits of current research †

  • The study of cultural violence highlights the way in which the act of direct violence and the fact of structural violence are legitimized and thus rendered acceptable in society. [Galtung, 1990, p.292]
  • To address the spent fuel storage issue, this paper will provide such a cost comparison. [Macfarlane, 2001, p.1380]
  • Although the case presented in this paper specially addresses the situation in the United States, this analysis will provide a template discussion that is applicable to the situations in other countries. [Macfarlane, 2001, p.1380]
  • The discussion in this paper should clarify the costs to be paid and will suggest alternative solutions to the spent fuel problem. [Macfarlane, 2001, p.1380]
