Summary/Abstract: The history of nuclear energy, as one of the possible ways out of energy crisis and the transition into the post-oil period is analysed. Since its discovery, nuclear energy has been used for military purposes and consequently shrouded in mystery and volatility. The coalition formed during World War II found the new legitimacy for the continuation of nuclear power use via its programme “Atoms for Peace”. The atomic bomb has evolved into atoms for peace, a complementary means by which the USA have been trying to secure global domination through nuclear technology. The programme has not achieved its objectives, although external conditions should have warranted that.
