Johnston argues that the preemptive first-use of nuclear weapons,
long the foundation of American nuclear strategy, was not the
carefully reasoned response to a growing Soviet conventional
threat. Instead, it was part of a process of cultural
'socialization', by which the United States reconstituted the
previously nationalist strategic cultures of the European allies
into a seamless western community directed by Washington. Building
a bridge between theory and practice, this book examines the
usefulness of cultural theory in international history.
