Who Will Explode the Next Nuclear Bomb?
Sixty-two years ago, the US detonated two atomic bombs over Japan. Since then, nuclear know-how has spread throughout the world. In this documentary produced for the BBC World Service, we examine the threat of nuclear terrorism and the debate over nuclear deterrence.

Nuclear weapons can range from satellite-guided nuclear missiles to "dirty" bombs made from rogue radioactive materials. Robert Hutchinson, managing editor of Jane's Defence Weekly, gives us an overview of the threat from nuclear devices. He focuses this half-hour on the smuggling and procurement of nuclear materials.
PART 2






In this documentary produced for the BBC World Service, defense expert Robert Hutchinson looks at the nuclear crisis in North Korea, and at diplomatic moves to curb it.
