The December 2003 IAEA Bulletin edition marks the 50th anniversary of the historic ÒAtoms for PeaceÓ speech delivered by US President Eisenhower in 1953, asking for the creation of an International Atomic Energy Agency. It includes retrospectives on the motivations for the creation of the Agency and on the AgencyÕs achievements since then, as well as articles about its future. Articles also focus on the IAEAÕs changing political environment; on the Non-Proliferation Treaty and disarmament; and on the sustainability of nuclear power.
