This volume examines the conditions necessary for a stable
nuclear-weapons-free world and the implications for nuclear
disarmament policy. The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is a
road map to nuclear zero, but it is a rudimentary one and it says
nothing about the kind of zero to aim for. Preferably, this would
be a world where the inhibitions against reversal are strong enough
to make it stably non-nuclear. What then are the requirements of
stable zero? The literature on nuclear disarmament has paid little
attention to this question. By and large, the focus has been on the
next steps, and discussions tend to stop where the NPT stops: with
the elimination of the weapons. This book seeks to fill a lacuna by
examining the requirements of stable zero and their implications
for the road map to that goal, starting from the vision to the
present day. The volume highlights that a clear conception of the
goal not only is important in itself, but can shed light on what
kind of disarmament process to promote. This book will be of much
interest to students of nuclear proliferation, global governance,
security studies and IR.
