Abstract

The aim of this paper was to investigate whether and to what extent a gender gap exists in attitudes
towards nuclear weapons. Based on the review of existing literature and public opinion polls, there is
evidence that the views of men and women on nuclear weapons are not uniform. However, it was not
possible to find a clear pattern among the various countries included, making it difficult to generalize
the findings.
