The Baruch Plan

2. The Non-Proliferation Treaty
A nonproliferation regime is an interlocking network of treaties,
agreements, and organizations designed to prevent the spread or use of
weapons of mass destruction.
The Non-Proliferation Treaty allows the International Atomic
Energy Agency of the United Nations to monitor nuclear weapons
activities.
Baruch's plea was supportive of the destruction of nuclear weapons
and the treaty invoked basic moral and religious intuitions.

3. The Baruch Plan was a proposal by the United States
government, written largely by Bernard Baruch but based
on the Acheson–Lilienthal Report, to the United Nations
Atomic Energy Commission (UNAEC) during its first
meeting in June 1946.

4. The Launch Of Nuclear Ethics
In one part of Bernard Bauch’s address to the UN, Baruch
said, "Behind the black portent of the new atomic age
lies a hope which, seized upon with faith, can work out
our salvation. If we fail, then we have damned every
man to be the slave of Fear. Let us not deceive ourselves.
We must elect World Peace or World Destruction.... We
must answer the world's longing for peace and
security."[3]
With this remark, Baruch helped launch the
field of nuclear ethics, to which many policy experts and
scholars have contributed.

5. This Treaty Did 2 Things
(1) The Treaty made the establishment of an
"international atomic development authority," which
would actually own and control all military-applicable
nuclear materials and activities,
2) The Treaty helped the creation of a system of
automatic sanctions, which not even the U.N. Security
Council could veto, and which would proportionately
punish states attempting to acquire the capability to
make nuclear weapons or fissile material.
