Primary Works Cited "The Safeguards System of the International Atomic Energy Agency (Revised)." IAEA. 15 May 1997. Web. 30 Jan. 2014. This source was the updated version of the source The Agencys Safeguards System, which was from 1965 covering the new updated safeguards system, so I can compare and contrast both documents. The document helps me understand how the safeguards system operates currently, along with how the NPT effected the implementation of this document. "The Agency's Safeguards." FAS. International Atomic Energy Agency, 9 Apr. 1964. Web. 20 Jan. 2014. This source directly correlates with the source "The Agency's Safeguards System". It is basically an extension of the system to large reactor facilities, or those achieving 100 or more thermal megawatts. This gives me a general understanding of how they are always trying to improve the treaty. "The Agency's Safeguards System." IAEA. 16 Sept. 1968. Web. 31 Jan. 2014. This source is the official 1968 The Agencys Safeguards System (Revision 2), which came before the NPT. The document covers regulations varying from inspections by the Agency to when the document will be reviewed. Safeguards are a part of the NPT, so I can assess both sources together. Its goal is to enforce the peaceful use of nuclear energy, which is a main goal of the NPT. Carter, Jimmy.
