Fourteen Proliferation Questions

Fourteen Proliferation Questions.

1. Can nuclear proliferation be effectively avoided through alteration of commercial nuclear technology to increase its proliferation resistance?

2. Should domestic manufactured and sold nuclear technology be modified to increase its proliferation resistance?

3. Should proliferation resistance be built in to domestic nuclear technology even if it increases energy costs?

4. Should proliferation resistance be built into domestic nuclear technology if is considered cost effective?

5. What should be the standard for proliferation resistance cost effectiveness for domestic nuclear technology?

6. What justification could there be for deliberately building in extra proliferation protection into domestically manufactured and used nuclear technology?

7. Should all nuclear technology offered for foreign sales be required to conform to a proliferation resistance standard?

8, Should nuclear technology offered for foreign sales to foreign nuclear powers be built to proliferation resistance standards?

9. Should nuclear technology offered foreign sales to fo nuclear capable states deemed responsible be designed and built without concern to proliferation potential be built to proliferation resistance standards?

10. Should nuclear technology offered for foreign sales to potential proliferators or possible proliferators be built with proliferation special resistance features?

11. Should nuclear technology offered for foreign sales to potential proliferators or possible proliferators be built with proliferation special resistance features deemed cost effective?

12. Would building in proliferation resistant features into nuclear technology sold to potential proliferators or possible proliferators be an effective means of preventing proliferation.

13. Should anti-proliferation efforts mostly focus on policy or technology?

14, How would you justify the last choice?
