Safeguards play a key role in verifying the effectiveness of
restraints on the spread of nuclear weapons. Originally published
in 1985, this book is a study of the safeguards system of the
International Atomic Energy Agency, an important element of the
non-proliferation regime. It breaks new ground by focusing on the
politics of safeguards, especially the political problems of the
IAEA and of the day-to-day application of safeguards. It contains a
critical appraisal and proposals for ways of improving existing
procedures, and of adapting them to the political and technological
changes of recent years. Safeguarding the Atom gives an analysis of
the following questions: What are IAEA safeguards and how do they
work? How effective are they? How can they be reinforced? What
sanctions can be imposed in the event of non-compliance? IAEA
safeguards represent the world's first and so far only attempt to
verify an arms control agreement by systematic on-site inspection,
and their applicability to other arms control measures is examined.
