Nuclear Conundrum of Iran and North Korea From Proliferation Crisis to Non-Proliferation Promise?

By Hina Pandey Copyright 2024

    This book examines Iran and North Korea from a non-proliferation lens. It highlights how these two countries stand out as nuclear challenges vis-à-vis the NPT and unpacks their nuclear history, recent developments, nuclear resolve in the times of the pandemic and future challenges in a comprehensive manner. It shows how these two issues remain similar, distinguished, dynamic but static so far progress on non-proliferation is concerned.

    The book will be a valuable read for students, scholars, academicians, policy practitioners and anyone invested and interested in nuclear issues.
