Instead of concentrating on the prevention of the spread of weapons
of mass destruction, these studies concentrate on preventing their
use. A common argument runs through all of the papers: that, while
complacency must be avoided, much of the post-Cold War focus among
Western governments on the threat posed by weapons of mass
destruction is alarmist. Beyond this shared ground, the
contributors are diverse in their approaches and in many of their
conclusions. The first three provide critiques of Western policy as
in some ways having the unintended effect of increasing rather than
reducing the chances of the use of weapons of mass destruction,
especially nuclear weapons. The next three address themselves to
contexts which may influence the use of WMD, again especially
nuclear weapons. The last two authors challenge widely-held
assumptions among those worried about how to prevent the use of
weapons of mass destruction.
