Abstract

But for a few exceptions, Italian legal doctrine has not proved to be very con- cerned with issues relating to disarmament and national security, even though Italy's military involvement within NATO and the Mediterranean region is being expanded. For this reason, Migliorino's book on the seabed and weapons of mass destruction is particularly welcome. The book - which is part of a larger project on ocean law sponsored by the Italian National Research Council - is divided into four chapters, followed by a documentary section and an English summary. The first Chapter is devoted to the predecessor of the 1971 Seabed Treaty (i.e.: the Moscow Treaty banning, inter alia, underwater nuclear weapons testing, and the Tlatelolco Treaty) and the process whereby the negotiation for a treaty prohibiting nuclear weapons on the seabed shifted from the Seabed Committee to the Geneva Committee on Disarmament, a body over which the two superpowers have more influence. Chapter two examines the drafting history of the 1971 Treaty and also the Review Conference of the contracting parties. The Conference, held in 1977, came to the conclusion that the obligation not to emplace nuclear weapons in the seabed and its subsoil had been honoured
