In Chapter 2 of the International Panel on Fissile Materials' (IPFM) Global Fissile Material Report 2009, James Acton and co-authors present an overview of the role of fissile material control in nuclear disarmament. They start by briefly reviewing efforts, since 1945, to secure nuclear disarmament and discuss the renewal of the nuclear abolition debate today. They then outline some of the major choices that will have to be made in eliminating nuclear weapons and explore their implications for the management of fissile material in a disarming world.
