Mới đây, Việt Nam đã được bầu vào Hội đồng Thống đốc Cơ quan Năng lượng Nguyên tử Quốc tế (International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA). Kể từ khi năng lượng nguyên tử được đem vào nghiên cứu và ứng dụng thành công trong lĩnh vực cung ứng năng lượng, nó đã trở thành một tia hi vọng mới cho sự phát triển của nhân loại. Tuy nhiên, các sự kiện liên quan đến năng lượng nguyên tử, như việc ném bom hạt nhân của quân đội Mỹ vào các thành phố của Nhật Bản năm 1945 cho đến thảm họa nhà máy nguyên tử Chernobyl và Fukushima Daiichi, đã cho thấy khả năng hủy diệt của năng lượng nguyên tử. Câu hỏi được đặt ra là: Đã 10 năm kể từ khi thảm họa Fukushima xảy ra, chúng ta đã tìm ra cách giải quyết những mối lo ngại về an toàn xã hội của năng lượng nguyên tử, như rủi ro nổ nhà máy, xử lý chất phóng xạ, hay kiểm soát chế tạo vũ khí hạt nhân, với các tiến bộ khoa học công nghệ hiện nay hay chưa?Bài viết này sẽ tóm tắt bản tường trình hội nghị ‘Thorium energy for the world’ (tạm dịch: năng lượng Thorium cho toàn cầu) và bàn luận về khả năng của khoa học và công nghệ trong việc kiểm soát và phát triển ngành công nghiệp năng lượng đầy triển vọng này.

The purpose of this Quality Assurance (QA) protocol is to summarize guidelines that have been accepted by directors of many radiocarbon dating laboratories throughout the world, and by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Some laboratories have followed similar procedures successfully for years. Laboratories that carefully adhere to this protocol will produce consistently reliable data that will be comparable in accuracy to all other laboratories following this or any other equally rigorous quality assurance program. This statement does not, however, pertain to samples with 14C activities highly sensitive to method or degree of pretreatment, as pretreatment techniques vary among laboratories.

The objectives of the founders of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reflected the dual nature of atomic power: it was the embodiment of both the highest hopes and the deepest fears of mankind. First, the Agency's developmental responsibility was to accelerate the contribution of atomic energy to peace, health, and prosperity throughout the world. Second and equally important was to be the Agency's control function: to create a reliable system of safeguards against diversion of fissionable material to military uses in order that the broadening of the peaceful applications of atomic energy should not increase the danger of strengthening the military potential of nations. Within this broad framework, the Agency was to plan and carry out specific projects and activities. This responsibility was largely to be a function of the Board of Governors, whose establishment was an immediate necessity if IAEA was to begin operations.

The Israeli raid in June 1981 against the Osirak nuclear reactor in Iraq has been extensively analyzed by scholars, especially in the context of debate about the efficacy of preemptive strikes against hostile nuclear programs. Yet surprisingly, some important historical questions have been left unanswered: how did the raid affect the Reagan administration’s nuclear nonproliferation policy, and how was the raid perceived by relevant administration officials? How did the United States design its political strategy of response to the raid, and how did this strategy play out at the International Atomic Energy Agency? What does this episode tell us about Ronald Reagan’s foreign policy priorities? By exploring recently declassified documents from several archives around the world, this article addresses all of these questions and, in the process, debunks revisionist myths relating to the raid.
