Policy Imperatives for an Arctic Nuclear-Weapon-Free-Zone

DEDICATION

To the memory of Michael Wallace, who was a member of the Board of

Canadian Pugwash. He was a Professor of Political Science at the University of

British Columbia, and his expert knowledge of international security and

military matters was vast and often used on our behalf. His paper, with Steven

Staples, gave us the official kick-off of our campaign to promote the formation

of a Nuclear-Weapon-Free Arctic.
