    Seminar Abstract

    “In this seminar, Dr Justin Hastings will describe how a network analysis approach to trade and research relevant to the spread of nuclear materials, technology, and knowledge can aid analysis of countries’ nuclear capabilities, thus improving nuclear non-proliferation, safeguards, and security efforts. Dr Hastings will then use network analysis to look at how North Korea’s nuclear research community developed in the context of its science and technology policy, and how this development reflected progress in North Korea’s nuclear programme. Using a dataset of North Korean domestic scientific journal articles, he will assess the structure of the North Korea’s nuclear research communities from the beginning of the country’s nuclear programme until its capability “completion” in 2018. The networks showed increasing internal density of research collaborations, suggesting North Korea was able to improve knowledge transfer, and consolidate its nuclear research community over time. Furthermore, different areas of nuclear-related research increased interconnectivity over time, particularly in the run-up to milestones in North Korea’s nuclear development. Dr Hastings will conclude with implications for engaging with North Korea on science and technology issues.”
