Abstract

The article "The Control of Atomic Energy Under the Charter" by James T. Shotwell discusses the implications of atomic energy in terms of destructive capacity and constructive possibilities. Shotwell emphasizes the need for coordination between the physical and political sciences to address the challenges posed by atomic energy. The article also explores the role of the United Nations in regulating atomic energy and suggests the need for a Commission on Atomic Energy to oversee its peaceful use. Shotwell highlights the importance of adapting international law to the changed landscape of total war and the necessity of eliminating war as an instrument of policy. [Extracted from the article]
