Approaching Irreversibility in Global Nuclear Politics
Despite growing interest in irreversibility, it remains one of the least-studied concepts in the nuclear disarmament and arms control literature.Scratch beneath the surface and it becomes clear that "irreversibility" needs to be unpacked both conceptually and empirically.How can we meaningfully and productively address irreversibility in the context of global nuclear politics?Should irreversibility be seen as a distinct concept to be taken seriou…

We focus on the use of chemical weapons at Ghouta in 2013 and on the Hama Plains in 2014, and reach three conclusions. First, chem…
