Description

New #Podcast Episode!  ? Are non-nuclear weapon states finding or forming leverage against nuclear powers? 
On Saturday, Honduras became the 50th country to sign the TPNW, a multilateral legally binding instrument for nuclear disarmament that will take effect in 90 days - by January 22, 2021. 
So far, none of the current nuclear powers have signed the accord raising doubts on its potential but is this Treaty holding more meaning or influence than the eye can see? 
In this episode we explore:

✨What's the relationship between hegemonic masculinity and nuclear weapons?
✨What are the provisions of the TPNW?
✨What are the arguments of nuclear powers to reject the Treaty?
✨Can International Relations Theories “evolve” with the changing times or… are they serving a purpose for statesmen’s viewpoints on masculine power?
✨How Gender Lens can help us understand better Nuclear Politics?
