Abstract [en]
This compendium of working papers features contributions by the members of the AMC Working Group on Nuclear Disarmament in Policy and International Law, and by students and early-career professionals selected following an open call for abstracts. The first part of the collection—from the Working Group members—features scene-setting pieces which reconsider the notion of ‘nuclear disarmament’ and relevant concepts in the contemporary strategic context. The second part of the collection—from the selected students and early-career scholars—feature original research on an array of topics. These have been sorted into four broad thematic areas: 1) the role of nuclear-armed states in the disarmament space, 2) key processes and mechanisms that can help facilitate disarmament progress, 3) potential impacts of technological advancements, and 4) frameworks and perspectives that can help recast disarmament concepts. Together, the compendium represents an effort to expand the current understanding of the topic, with view to reinvigorating efforts towards a world free of nuclear weapons.
