STOPPING the Nuclear threat in Europe and South Asia

After World War Two European States expected further wars. Many States including Switzerland France Germany wanted to create their own A-bombs. War did not happen. Instead Europe entered the longest period of peace in more than 2000 years. Thanks to the diplomacy of Robert Schuman creator of the European Community European States created an Atomic Energy Community which controlled the use of fissile material for bombs. Today among worldwide crises and threats of nuclear war Europe needs to complete the obligations in the Euratom Treaty of 1957. How should democrats deal with the Indian bomb the Pakistani bomb and the Iranian bomb? This short book shows how to apply the blueprint of the successful European experiment elsewhere. 'It is possible for the world to cure itself from the threat of nuclear war' says author David H Price Schuman historian journalist and former Euratom official. 'Not only that it is possible for the world to enter a time of great prosperity.'
