Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering the latest Iranian nuclear developments, one might question whether a study now on how best to restrain Tehran is simply one that's come too late. To be sure, estimates vary as to when Iran could build its first bomb. Some believe Tehran could do it before the end of 2005; others think Iran would only be able to do so by the end of the decade. In either case, though, the die seems cast: If Iran wants, it has all that it needs eventually to build a bomb on its own. Certainly, trying to deny Iran further nuclear technology in the hopes that this will prevent it from getting nuclear weapons is no longer a credible strategy. The questions this edited volume addresses are whether or not any strategy can prevent Iran from going nuclear, what the proper goals of such a strategy might be (deterring use, keeping Tehran from deploying weapons, getting it to dismantle its nuclear program, etc.), and what other nonproliferation goals ought to be attempted (including trying to dissuade other nations from following Iran's example). The answers this volume offers are: 1) in the long-run Iran will gain little from going nuclear, and 2) much can be gained by enforcing the nonproliferation rules Iran agreed to and spelling out the costs to Iran of its continuing acquisition of nuclear weapons- related capabilities.
Download or read book Nuclear Strategy with the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran written by David M. Blackburn and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bad relationship between the United States and Iran began in 1979 when radical students stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran and took hostages. The hostage standoff lasted 444 days; and surely, the crisis helped President Carter lose his reelection bid. In President George W. Bush's 2002 State of the Union address, he named Iran as one of the nations in the "axis of evil." In December 2002, Russia agreed to assist Iran with nuclear power. The resulting Bushehr Nuclear Power Facility is an enormous cause for U.S. concern. Iran is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NNPT), and it adamantly insists the nuclear program is merely for power generation. The United States fervently opposes the Bushehr venture due to the possibility of nuclear weapons production. These facts and many more provide a history of distrust and poor relations between the two countries. This study will examine strategies the U.S. could use regarding the growing threat Iran's nuclear program poses. The study will draw conclusions as to which strategy might be effective when dealing with Iran.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irans senior leadership and government officials claim to be pursuing a legitimate, civilian nuclear energy program.

Download or read book The Policy Decision Process of the Islamic Republic of Iran Through a Glass Darkly written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Islamic Republic of Iran remains defiant to the United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1696 which demands that "Iran suspend all nuclear enrichment-related and reprocessing activities, including research and development." Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has repeatedly said that Iran's nuclear activities are for peaceful purposes and that, as a sovereign country, Iran has the right to pursue nuclear energy. President Ahmadinejad stated Iran would not stop its nuclear program despite the threat of increasing isolation and international sanctions. Iran has been given numerous opportunities and deadlines to prove to the international community that its nuclear production actions are legitimate according to international laws, treaties, and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Yet, Iran has barred all inspection efforts by the IAEA. This defiance of international norms in connection with the possible acquisition of nuclear weapons represents a threat to the interests of the United States and its allies and friends in the region. Many have offered numerous ways to rectify this problem, including regime change through supporting Iranian opposition groups and conducting limited air strikes on Iran's nuclear production facilities. However, there is no guarantee that these actions will bring about the immediate and long-standing result that is required. Perhaps the wisest thing for strategists and planners to do before embarking upon any course of action towards Iran is to analyze Iran's complex political system to understand the functionality of the government's policy decision-making process. This may help them identify better ways of influencing the Iranian regime to change its policy toward nuclear activities and to abide by United Nations Security Resolutions. However, the challenge to understand the Iranian government's decision-making process is formidable and will demand that policy makers move beyond strategic ethnocentrism.

Book excerpt: This report analyzes four key aspects of US and Iranian strategic competition--sanctions, energy, arms control, and regime change. Its primary focus is on the ways in which the sanctions applied to Iran have changed US and Iranian competition since the fall of 2011. This escalation has been spurred by the creation of a series of far stronger US unilateral sanctions and the European Union’s imposition of equally strong sanctions, both of which affect Iran’s ability to export, its financial system, and its overall economy.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These documents record the international effort over the past three and a half years to address serious concerns regarding Iran's nuclear programme. The optimism expressed in the final document in the previous collection (2005, Cm6443, ISBN 9780101644327) has not been borne out. Iran resumed conversion activities and enrichment, and has not complied with several United Nations Security Council resolutions to suspend enrichment. International Atomic Energy Agency requests for information, access to documents and access to individuals, have not been satisfied. The documents detail the activities of the IAEA and the European Union to ensure that the international community can be confident about the real nature of Iran's nuclear activities.
Download or read book Country Nuclear Power Profiles written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preparation of Country Nuclear Power Profiles (CNPP) was initiated within the framework of the IAEA's programme on assessment and feedback of nuclear power plant performance. It responded to a need for a database and a technical publication containing a description of the energy and economic situation, the energy and the electricity sector, and the primary organizations involved in nuclear power in IAEA Member States. The CNPP covers background information on the status and development of nuclear power programmes in countries having nuclear plants in operation and/or plants under construction. It reviews the organizational and industrial aspects of nuclear power programmes in participating countries, and provides information about the relevant legislative, regulatory and international frameworks in each country. The CNPP compiles the current issues in the new environment within which the electricity and nuclear sector operates, i.e. energy policy, and privatization and deregulation in these sectors, the role of government, nuclear energy and climate change, and safety and waste management, which differ from country to country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing perspectives from a range of experts, including international lawyers, political scientists, and practitioners, this book assesses current theory and practice of economic sanctions, discussing current legal and political challenges faced by the international community.

Balancing theoretical analysis of legal considerations with national and regional level empirical analysis, it also includes coverage of sanctions issues by the UN Security Council and the EU, as well as the extraterritorial application of sanctions. A valuable reference for academics and practitioners, Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice will be useful to those working in the fields of international law, diplomacy, and international political economy.
Download or read book Politics of Oil and Nuclear Technology in Iran written by Akbar E. Torbat and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on oil politics and the development of nuclear technology in Iran, providing a broader historical context to understand Iran’s foreign relations and nuclear policy. The author assesses Iran's encounters with the West in light of major confrontations both in terms of open conflict as well as controversies surrounding treaties with foreign powers. In seeking to understand the geopolitics of oil in direct parallel to the geopolitics of nuclear technology, the book concentrates on Iran’s struggles to nationalize its oil, neo-colonialism, the formation of the oil consortium, and the more recent US backtracking on the nuclear deal with Iran.
