The authors, Ignacio Cartagena and Vicente Garrido Rebolledo, unravel the keys to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and explore the complex tension between disarmament, non-proliferation, and the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. A historical and political journey that explains how this regime seeks to avert the nuclear threat and foster global cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book examines the fundamental purpose of the non-proliferation regime: to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons to other States and reduce existing arsenals. Through a historical overview, it analyzes the emergence of the NPT in the context of the Cold War, its evolution, and the mechanisms for verification and control. It also addresses the system's contradictions, such as access to nuclear technology for peaceful purposes versus the risks of proliferation, and reflects on the utopian goal of complete nuclear disarmament under international control. The work offers a critical and documented vision of the achievements, failures, and future prospects of this pillar of global security.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistory and evolution of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eControl, verification, and sanction mechanisms in the non-proliferation regime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBalance between nuclear disarmament, non-proliferation, and peaceful uses of atomic energy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eContemporary challenges: Non-signatory nuclear-armed states, clandestine programs, and nuclear terrorism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe role of international organizations, especially the UN and the IAEA, in nuclear governance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at students and professionals of international relations, political science, and international law.
