A first look at a 21st century disarmament movement

Author: John Baker

In: Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 2016

Critically assesses the qualities that a nuclear disarmament movement needs to develop in the current era. By comparing Black Lives Matter, ICAN and the Nuclear Freeze movement of the 1980s, Baker explains why a new anti-nuclear weapons movement should be intersectional, digital and confrontational.
