Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation: the Role of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty

29 March 2000, Jan Smuts House, Wits University, Johannesburg

The seminar on Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation: the Role of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) was inspired by the March 1999 Tokyo meeting convened to discuss nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament. As the KAF, IIPS and BCSIA meeting emphasised, the global nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament process is not limited to a small number of global powers, but is rather a broad undertaking which should encompass states from both the northern industrialised nations and the southern developingnations. Given that South Africa was the first state to produce clandestinely and then dismantle and destroy nuclear weapons, it seemed appropriate to take up the challenge of the Tokyo meeting and extend the debate on nuclear non-proliferation at a seminar in Johannesburg. South Africa’s fervent anti-nuclear policy – consolidated after the country’s first democratic elections in 1994 – also provided an inspirational model to other states possessing, or considering the manufacture of, nuclear weapons.
