This book will illustrate that despite the variations of nuclear
tensions during the Cold War period-from nuclear inception, to mass
proliferation, to arms control treaties and detente, through to an
intensification and "reasonable" conclusion (the INF Treaty and
START being case points)-the "lessons" over the last decade are
quickly being unlearned. Given debates surrounding the emerging
"new Cold War," the deterioration of relations between Russia and
the United States, and the concurrent challenges being made by key
nuclear states in obfuscating arms control mechanisms, this book
attempts to provide a much needed revisit into US presidential
foreign policy during the Cold War. Across nine chapters, the
monograph traces the United States' nuclear diplomacy and
Presidential strategic thought, transitioning across the early
period of Cold War arms racing through to the era's defining
conclusion. It will reveal that notwithstanding the heightened
periods when great power conflict seemed imminent, arms control
fora and seminal agreements were able to be devised, implemented,
and provided a needed base in bringing down the specter of a
cataclysmic nuclear war, as well as improving bilateral relations.
This volume will be of great interest to scholars and students of
American foreign policy, diplomatic history, security studies and
international relations.
