This book makes a case for a reorientation of the nuclear
nonproliferation regime, posing an alternative conceptualization of
nuclear order centered on the regional level. It draws on an array
of theoretical tools from the literatures on regionalism, security
governance, and international institutions, developing a framework
that analyzes the conditions that would allow for more robust
regional nuclear cooperation. These include the presence of (1)
institutional architecture, (2) political, economic, and military
relations among states, and (3) fundamental regional awareness and
identity. Wan then deploys this theoretical approach to several
case studies, including Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, and the
Middle East, focusing on two interrelated questions. First, what is
the viability of a stronger regional nuclear order in the region?
Second, what form would such an order most likely take? In the
process, the book identifies the magnitude and character of the
proliferation challenge specific to each region. It also considers
the existing character of nuclear cooperation at the regional
level. Wan presents the historical development of regional nuclear
order in Latin America as a model for the rest of the world. In
this area, regional institutions ranging from organizations to
dialogues to ad hoc arrangements gradually became more involved
across economic, environmental, and human security domains,
providing the foundation for multilateral cooperation in the
nuclear arena. As his analysis shows, in light of the contemporary
proliferation landscape, the establishment and strengthening of
such regional nuclear orders is essential.
