The tragedy of the commons
- Science
, 1968
"... At the end of a thoughtful article on the future of nuclear war, Wiesner and York (1) concluded that: “Both sides in the arms race are... confronted by the dilemma of steadily increasing military power and steadily de-creasing national security. It is our considered professional judgment that this d ..."

that this dilemma has no technical solution. If the great powers continue to look for solutions in the area of science and technology only, the result will be to worsen the situation.” I would like to focus your attention not on the subject of the article (national secu-rity in a nuclear world) but on the kind

Assembling a Mosaic of the Future: The Post- Nuclear World of Fallout 3
"... It was around 450 BCE when Leucippus and Democritus formulated the first theories about Atoms and Void. It took humanity 2400 years to turn those theories into weapons. At 5:29 a.m. on July 16, 1945, the United States conducted the world's first nuclear test explosion at Alamogordo, New Mexico1 ..."

The growing world of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins
- In The RNA World (Gesteland
, 1999
"... Small ribonucleoproteins (RNPs)—defined as tight complexes of one or more proteins with a short RNA molecule (usually 60–300 nucleotides)— inhabit every compartment of eukaryotic cells. Those that reside in the nucleus, the small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs), can themselves be divided into two families. Th ..."

The role of affect and worldviews as orienting dispositions in the perception and acceptance of nuclear power
- J. Appl. Soc. Psychol
, 1996
"... Recent research in risk perception has examined the role of affect and worldviews as orienting dispositions that guide people’s decisions about complex and risky topics such as nuclear energy. This study tests and supports the hypothesis that worldviews and affect-laden imagery are highly predictive ..."

Nuclear Proliferation and Authority in World Politics
"... We apply the “security-hierarchy paradox ” to nuclear proliferation. Global security requires a certain amount of hierarchy. A world in which no nuclear proliferation rules exist to constrain states, for example, would not be secure. Global security requires legitimate and authoritative rules, which ..."
