Abstract

A straightforward derivation of the Bell inequalities is given, without in any way appealing to locality. This demonstrates the incompatibility of both local and nonlocal hidden variables theories with quantum mechanics, and the irrelevance of the Bell inequalities to the problem of (non)locality in such theories.
