  • Summary

  • When nuclear fission was first discovered, its potential was undeniable, both for great progress and profound destruction. Knowing this, countries around the globe agreed to draft an international treaty that would protect the world from nuclear war and enable the peaceful use and sharing of nuclear technology. This inaugural episode of Sharing the Atom explores the conditions that led to the negotiation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), the limits of peaceful nuclear cooperation before the treaty, and how the desire for additional cooperation contributed to the agreement.
