Nuclear weapons after the 2010 NPT review conference

Métadonnées de la publication

This Chaillot Paper is published on the eve of the eighth review conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). The NPT remains a central pillar in the global quest to prevent the spread of destabilising armament programmes and a nuclear war. But the ‘grand bargain’ on which it is based is increasingly under strain. The 2010 Review Conference takes place amid rising concerns about proliferation, in the light of nuclear tests conducted by North Korea, the ongoing controversy over Iran’s nuclear programme, and the threat posed by international clandestine nuclear supply networks. The perceived weakening of the NPT has in recent years led to a fresh focus on the global elimination of nuclear weapons. However, the new emphasis on disarmament does not erase the profound problems currently besetting the NPT. This paper, edited by Jean Pascal Zanders and featuring contributions from other experts and academics, explores the prospects for the NPT from a variety of perspectives. Topics examined by the authors in this volume include: how consensus might be achieved among the international community on core issues affecting the treaty; how a new foundation for international nuclear technological cooperation might be built; the prospects for comprehensive nuclear disarmament in Europe; the politics of disarmament in the Anglo-American context; and how the EU might be able to exert a more significant impact on future developments.
