It examines nuclear arms policy via an interconnected framework involving the eclectic use of national security based realism, economic interdependence liberalism, and nuclear weapons norms or morality based constructivism. Through the various chapters examining the nuclear munitions decisions of South Africa, Ukraine and North Korea, a case is built that a state?s leadership decides whether to keep or give up ?the Bomb? based on interlinked security, economic and norms governed motivations. Thereafter, frameworks evaluating the likelihood of nuclear proliferation and accessing the feasibility of disarmament are then applied to North Korea and used to examine recent Iranian nuclear negotiability. This book is an invaluable resource for international relations and security studies scholars, WMD analysts and post graduate or undergraduate candidates focusing on nuclear arms politics related courses. 410 0$aNew Security Challenges,$x2731-0329 606 $aPolitics and war 606 $aPeace 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aMilitary and Defence Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912080 606 $aConflict Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912060 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aInternational Relations Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912110 615 0$aPolitics and war. 615 0$aPeace. 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 14$aMilitary and Defence Studies. 615 24$aConflict Studies. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aInternational Relations Theory. 676 $a355 700 $aNah$b Liang Tuang$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0897290 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300525403321 996 $aSecurity, Economics and Nuclear Non-Proliferation Morality$92004660 997 $aUNINA
