International Cooperation against the Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)

Scientific Study from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - Basics and General, grade: -, ( Atlantic International University ), course: Postdoctoral Research, language: English, abstract: Nunn (2005) postulated that no matter where people call their place, the central organizing security principal of the 21st century must be the prevention of the spread or utilization of nuclear weapons or other WMD.
