Zusammenfassung

The Fissile Material (Cutoff) Treaty (FM(C)T) is on the negotiation agenda since 1996, yet without any progress. The reason is a justice conflict, namely a disagreement on the emphasis that should be placed on nuclear disarmament on the one side and on nuclear non-proliferation on the other. Several countries perceive the FM(C)T as a tool to draw in the states outside of the nonproliferation regime, others understand it as a disarmament measure that reduces the quantities of fissile materials for nuclear weapons. They regard the unwillingness of the nuclear weapon states to engage towards this end as deeply unjust. As long as the nuclear weapon states only push their interests by pure power instead of respecting the notion of justice, no progress can be expected, and the nonproliferation regime will further erode.

Abstract

The Fissile Material (Cutoff) Treaty (FM(C)T) is on the negotiation agenda since 1996, yet without any progress. The reason is a justice conflict, namely a disagreement on the emphasis that should be placed on nuclear disarmament on the one side and on nuclear non-proliferation on the other. Several countries perceive the FM(C)T as a tool to draw in the states outside of the nonproliferation regime, others understand it as a disarmament measure that reduces the quantities of fissile materials for nuclear weapons. They regard the unwillingness of the nuclear weapon states to engage towards this end as deeply unjust. As long as the nuclear weapon states only push their interests by pure power instead of respecting the notion of justice, no progress can be expected, and the nonproliferation regime will further erode.
