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

Öz

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.
