Abstract

"Disarming Apartheid: The End of South Africa's Nuclear Weapons Programme and Accession to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, 1968–1991" by Robin E. Möser analyzes South Africa's nuclear disarmament process, highlighting the role of key leaders and negotiations with the African National Congress. The book explores how South Africa's disarmament influenced nonproliferation policy globally, emphasizing the importance of the end of the Cold War and leadership changes. Möser's research sheds light on the complex factors that led to South Africa's disarmament and NPT accession, providing valuable insights into the country's nuclear history and international relations."
