Abstract

The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, aka “the Non-Proliferation Treaty” currently stands as the “only binding commitment in a multilateral treaty to the goal of disarmament.” Recent review conferences of the treaty have been dubbed disappointing and even failures. The objective of this treatise is to examine the impacts of these developments are in the context of rational deterrence theory and organizational deterrence theory.
