Uluslararası barış ve güvenlik tarih boyunca birçok tehdit kaynağı tarafından tehlikeye atılmıştır. Geleneksel olarak, savaşlar ve çatışmalar ana tehdit kaynağı olarak işaret edilmiştir. Ancak, organize suçlar, her tür ayrımcılık, gelir adaletsizliği, doğal veya insan kaynaklı felaketler, salgın hastalıklar gibi geleneksel olmayan tehdit kaynakları bulunmaktadır çünkü toplumlar bunlar tarafından istikrarsızlaştırılabilir. Bu makale, uluslararası barış ve güvenliği küresel yönetişim bağlamında Nükleer Silahların Yayılmasının Önlenmesi Anlaşmasını ele alarak incelemektedir. Makale, nükleer silahların sınır aşırı karakteri nedeniyle küresel yönetişimin önemli bir meselesi ve uluslararası barış ve güvenliğe ciddi bir tehdit olduğunu öne sürmektedir. Dolayısıyla, bu sorunu aşmak için devletler ve toplumlar arasında ortak eylemler gerekmektedir. Makale ayrıca, anlaşmanın meşru ve hukuki nükleer devletleri belirleyen maddeleri göz önüne alındığında adil olmasa da anlaşmanın genel itibariyle tarafların anlaşmaya bağlılığı dikkate alındığında etkili olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Bu çalışma ilk olarak, küresel yönetişim (özellikle uluslararası barış ve güvenlik) ve nükleer silahlar arasındaki bağlantıya göz atmaktadır. Daha sonra, anlaşmayı mümkün kılan dinamikleri ve anlaşmanın hedeflerini incelemektedir. Bunun ardından, makale anlaşmanın bugüne kadarki etkililiğini ve rejimini genel olarak değerlendirmektedir. Son olarak, çalışma anlaşmanın geleceğine ve önerilere değinmektedir.

International Peace and Security: The Non-Proliferation Treaty on Nuclear Weapons

International peace and security have been endangered by various sources of threats throughout the history. Conventionally, wars and conflicts have been pointed out as main source of threat. Yet, there have been unconventional sources of threats such as organised crimes, all kinds of discriminations, inequality of income, natural or human-made disasters, and contagious diseases because societies can be destabilised by them. This article examines international peace and security by looking at the Non-Proliferation Treaty on Nuclear Weapons in the context of global governance. The article argues that nuclear weapons pose a significant threat to international peace and security and is a remarkable issue of global governance because of their trans-boundary character. So, collective actions among states and societies are required to overcome this problem. The study also claims that the treaty has generally been effective regarding parties’ adherence to it although it is not a fair treaty considering its article related to legal and legitimate nuclear states. This study, firstly, looks at the link between global governance (especially international peace and security) and nuclear weapons. Then, it examines dynamics led to the treaty and its goals. After that, the article evaluates generally its effectiveness and regime until today. Lastly, the study touches on its future and recommendations.
