Vol. 4, Issue 1 of Journal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament (J-PAND) is now available online. There are 13 open access articles.
For the issue, see here. For the first time in the journal’s history, we have invited Dr. John Borrie (United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research) as a guest editor to publish a special feature on “Implementing the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.”
Video of the International Joint Seminar “Assessing Northeast Asia Nuclear Domino: North Korean Nuclear Threat and Japanese Responses” (Jul. 2, 2021) is now available!
This workshop was originally proposed by Asia Pacific Leadership Network for Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament (APLN) to assess possible responses of Republic of Korea and Japan to nuclear threats from Democratic People’s of Republic of Korea (DPRK) in 2020. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the workshop was postponed to this year.
Now the workshop is jointly organized by APLN, Sejong Institute of ROK, and Pugwash Japan. It is intended to exchange frank opinions on this issue among experts, NGOs and parliamentarians from both countries.
This is the second series of three workshops and the first one was held in Seoul on May 14, 2021. And the third one is now planned to be held in Seoul in November 2021.
Pugwash Japan is hosting this second workshop (on-line).
