Is the appearance of new nuclear weapon states inevitable? Who are
the sponsors and apologists of nuclear weapons, and why are others
in favour of renouncing them? What are the implications for
international security of the increasingly wide use of nuclear
energy? How can nuclear threats be defused? Originally published in
1985, SIPRI's study suggests some answers to these questions. The
book examines the situation in a number of countries of key
importance for non-proliferation: the two nuclear-weapon states
which have declined to join the 1968 Non-Proliferation Treaty
(China and France); a group of nuclear 'threshold' states also
remaining outside the Treaty (Argentina, Brazil, India, Israel,
Pakistan, South Africa and Spain); and a group of states, both
developed and developing, which for various reasons have joined the
Treaty (Canada, Egypt, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland and
Taiwan). The focus of the book is on motivations for and against
nuclear proliferation. An analysis of these motivations leads the
editor to make detailed recommendations aimed at halting the spread
of nuclear weapons. Appendices include a list of nuclear facilities
in the countries studied, specifying the degree of their coverage
by international controls, and other relevant documentation.
