researcher United Kingdom

Taras Young is a British researcher and author known for his work on nuclear warfare and civil defense, particularly in the context of the UK's historical preparedness during the Cold War. He has written extensively about the 'Protect and Survive' campaign, which aimed to inform citizens about surviving a potential nuclear attack, and has critiqued its unrealistic and often satirical reception in popular culture. Young's insights into past government efforts to prepare civilians for nuclear threats provide a historical lens through which to evaluate contemporary civilian protection plans in Europe.
