What is the meaning of the expression "異質の危険"?


I've been reading some documents on documents by various political parties,
and have seen the term "異質の危険" used by 日本共産党 a few times now, but cannot work
out what it means.

Whenever I've seen it, it's always surrounded by quotation marks, such as

>
> 安倍晋三政権が今国会へ提出し、国家安全保障会議（日本版ＮＳＣ）設置法案とともに成立をねらう秘密保護法案に対し、反対の世論が広がっています。秘密保護法案は、外交、防衛など日本の「安全保障に関する情報」を保護するため、「行政機関の長」が「特定秘密」を指定し、それを漏らした公務員などに「懲役１０年」もの重罰を科す弾圧法です。情報に接近しようとした国民や報道機関も対象です。秘密保護法は、「安全保障」を名目に、広範な行政情報を国民から隠す、文字通りの「軍事立法」です。これまでにはない
> **“異質の危険”** は明らかです。

and

>
> 日本中の原発が停止した“原発稼働ゼロ”の期間は７００日になろうとしている。原発がなくても電力が足りていることは、この月日が証明している。ひとたび大事故を起こしたら、その被害が空間的にも時間的にも制限なく広がる
> **「異質の危険」** を持つ原発と人類は共存できない。

I've tried to find other examples of this term in databases of parallel texts,
and definitions of it in Japanese, but cannot find any kind of explanation. I
suppose that a literal translation might be "heterogeneous danger" or "foreign
danger", but I cannot work out how this makes any sense in the context of the
paragraphs such as the above.

Would anyone be able to shed any light on this phrase?

Thanks.




I don't think 異質の危険 is a commonly used combination, but in this context, 異質の
roughly means _qualitatively different_.

While there are varying degrees of dangerous things in the world, the authors
are basically saying that 秘密保護法案/原発 is incomparably, enormously dangerous, and
putting it simply as "more dangerous than others" (quantitatively) is not
enough.
