Description
This panel examines how states often positioned at the margins of global nuclear governance, whether small states, regional actors, or norm challengers, engage with, resist, and reshape the global nuclear order. Collectively, the contributions interrogate how identity, status, and structural inequalities influence compliance, resistance, and the creation and evolution of norms in nuclear politics. The panel invites discussion on the implications of these dynamics for global governance, regional security, and the future of nuclear norms, as well as on the actors who are shaping the nuclear security landscape.
