Q: How can I articulate the current South African (SA) nuclear diplomacy?
Current SA nuclear diplomacy is built on the 1995 nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT), and has been described as ‘niche’ following much penultimate international engagement. But there is revelation showing that it rather a state display of power politics.
You seem to be writing a perspective piece (aka commentary/opinion/think piece), rather than a purely academic/scientific paper. Also, it’s very region-specific – we are not familiar with SA geopolitics. So, if you are looking for help only with how to pen a perspective piece, you may refer to the resources below:
- A young researcher's guide to perspective, commentary, and opinion articles
- Are short communication articles the same as commentaries or perspective pieces?
- Where can I publish a 7000 word perspective piece?
As you have categorized it under ‘Statement of the problem,’ you may also refer to this excellent resource on writing on a problem statement: The basics of writing a statement of the problem for your research proposal
Hope that helps. All the best for your piece!
