Spanning the years from the Irish Resolution of 1958 to the treaty's eventual opening for signatures ten years later, the nine chapters authored by esteemed area experts shed light on the processes and motivations behind the political and diplomatic actions taken by the neutrals, as well as their impact on the multilateral treaty negotiations. This comprehensive book unveils fresh insights into the dynamics that ultimately resulted in this pivotal multilateral breakthrough of the Cold War.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Part One, three chapters offer a bird's-eye view of the international system, delving into the concepts of neutrality, nonalignment, and the nuclear order. The second part presents six in-depth case studies, exploring the politics and diplomacy of Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, and Yugoslavia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, this study posits that, despite the volatile and perilous nature of the early Cold War, the balance of the strategic environment allowed actors that were not part of either alliance system to contribute to the intricate global politics that ultimately established the nuclear regime that shapes international relations to this day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a valuable resource for scholars of nonproliferation, the Cold War, neutrality, nonalignment, and area studies, this book is freely accessible in its Open Access version, available at http:\/\/www.taylorfrancis.com.
