Explanation:

Critics of the non-proliferation regime argue that it is a product of a bygone 'first nuclear age' (1945-90). The second nuclear age presents different demands. States face a different security dilemma and hence have some motivation to acquire nuclear weapons due to the uncertainty of their status.
