CAN THE WORLD TOLERATE AN IRAN WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS?: THE MUNK DEBATE ON IRAN
Book ID/图书代码： 06481013B60296
English Summary/英文概要： With tensions between Iran, Israel, and Western powers reaching new highs over the
Islamic Republic’s nuclear enrichment program, the tenth edition of the Munk Debates
investigates how the world should respond to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
For some, the case for a pre-emptive strike on Iran is ironclad. An Iranian bomb would
flood the volatile Middle East with nuclear weapons and trap Israel in a state of perilous
insecurity — along with much of the world’s oil supply. Others argue that a nuclear Iran
could be the very stabilizing force that the region needs, as the threat of nuclear war
makes conventional conflicts more risky. These same voices also ask: Can the West and
Israel afford to attack Iran when doing so could roll back the Arab Spring and re-entrench
reactionary forces throughout the Middle East?
In this edition of the Munk Debates — Anansi’s premier international debate series —
former Israel Defense Forces head of military intelligence Amos Yadlin, Pulitzer Prize–
winning political commentator Charles Krauthammer, CNN host Fareed Zakaria, and
Iranian-born academic Vali Nasr debate the consequences of a nuclear-armed Iran.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 随着伊朗核浓缩计划引发伊朗、以色列与西方国家之间的紧张关系持续升级，第十届蒙克辩论会聚焦全球应如何应对伊朗的核野心。
对某些人来说，对伊朗实施先发制人打击的理由是铁板钉钉的。伊朗拥有核武器将使动荡的中东地区陷入核武器泛滥的困境，使以色列陷入危险的不安全状态——同时切断全球大部分石油供应。另一些人则认为，拥有核武器的伊朗可能成为该地区亟需的稳定力量，因为核战争的威胁使得常规冲突风险更高。这些声音还提出疑问：当西方和以色列发动攻击可能逆转‘阿拉伯之春’、重新巩固中东地区反动势力时，他们是否还能承担得起对伊朗的打击?
