Epistemic communities represent networks of knowledge-based experts
that help articulate cause-and-effect relationships of complex
problems, define the self-interests of a state, or formulate
specific policies for state decision makers. However, the role of
these scientists and knowledgeable professionals in nuclear policy
formulation is poorly understood. Thoroughly documented and making
excellent use of source material, Politics and the Bomb provides
refreshingly new empirical evidence and theoretical analysis of the
importance of scientists and experts behind the creation of new
non-proliferation agreements. Simply not another book on nuclear
proliferation, Sara Z. Kutchesfahani explores the differences in
the emergence, composition, and influence mechanisms of the
epistemic communities behind the nuclear non-proliferation policy
formulation in Brazilian-Argentine Agency for Accounting and
Control of Nuclear Materials (ABACC) and the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative
Threat Reduction (CTR) Program. In doing so she eloquently
demonstrates how the role of these non-proliferation experts lead
to the possibility of creating more effective non-proliferation
policies in the future and hints at the need to sustain
non-proliferation epistemic communities in all countries that can
provide input to the global proliferation problem until it is
solved.
