The Middle East is a hot spot of proliferation. It contains one
state assumed to possess nuclear weapons, several states that tried
and failed to develop a military nuclear capability, one state
under suspicion of trying to do so, and it is the world region that
witnessed the most frequent and severe employment of chemical
weapons since the end of World War I. Notwithstanding, not a single
arms control regime concerning weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
covers the region as a whole. Instead we have seen several
proliferation-related military operations which have rather
contributed to destabilization than served non-proliferation. This
volume, written under the auspices of the EU Consortium for
Non-Proliferation and Disarmament determines the current state of
diplomatic efforts to establish a WMD free zone in the Middle East.
In doing so, it provides insights into central actors' conflicting
political positions, thereby explaining the stalemate of efforts to
negotiate a WMD-free zone. Chapters written by renowned experts
from academia and policy-oriented think tanks, as well as by
next-generation Middle East and arms control experts, introduce the
subject to the reader, give background information about arms
control initiatives, provide technical expertise, and endeavour to
make proposals for arms control measures in support of the creation
of a Middle East WMD-free zone.
