Politics of Nuclear (Non-)Proliferation

Watch (at least) one of the following movies:

1. Day After (1984) 

2. Threads (1984)

3. The War Game (1965)

After you watch the movie, consider whether anything that you have learned during your studies so far was somehow useful for a deeper understanding of some aspects of that movie. Then write your reflection to the forum – a reflection of the movie from a standpoint of someone who has expertise in International Relations / Security Studies.

WARNING: All three of these movies contain highly disturbing, violent images (particularly the "Threads" movie, which is brilliant but likely the most horrifying movie I have ever seen). If you prefer not to watch any of these movies, read the attached article on the "nuclear taboo" and write an academic reflection of it instead.
