Abstract
This article concerns responses to health risk concerns about electromagnetic emissions
from mobile phone masts. The article draws particular attention to the differential patterns of state
response in the UK, USA, Italy, Ireland and Australia. It concludes that precautionary government
responses have played a role in the ‘social construction’ of risk perceptions.
