<abstract>The article explains the problem of controversies expressed by expert in the field of estimating and managing ionizing radiation risks. It analyzes the paradigms that were conceived on this subject, in particular the studies carried out by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). The study shows the problem of the paradigma's information, uncertainties, and expert and value judgments, and provides areas for consideration that may contribute to a better uderstanding of certain gridlocks in the decision-making process, as a regards to environmental, health, and energy policies</abstract>
