It argues that the development of these controls has been hindered by a fundamental challenge: the non-proliferation collective action problem. This problem arises due to the absence of an overarching, effective system of control, leading to competition among suppliers. Despite ongoing efforts to address this issue and strengthen controls, the book contends that these measures have been inherently limited due to the same structural factors and vested interests that initially contributed to the problem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe study spans from the early days of the nuclear age to the present, examining the historical context and early efforts to regulate the atom. It also explores the contemporary challenges posed by the nuclear ambitions of Iran and North Korea, highlighting the gaps and weaknesses in the international nuclear trade control regime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough a rich blend of original archival research and in-depth interviews, the book provides a compelling demonstration of the collective action problem's impact on cooperation in preventing nuclear proliferation. It sheds light on the persistent gaps and challenges that exist within the international nuclear trade control framework.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is of immense interest to students, scholars, and professionals in the fields of nuclear proliferation, arms control, security studies, and International Relations. It offers valuable insights and perspectives on the complex dynamics of global nuclear governance and provides a valuable resource for understanding the ongoing efforts to promote peace and security in the nuclear sphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032046884\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ian J.
