What role should nuclear weapons play in today's world? How can the
United States promote international security while safeguarding its
own interests? U.S. Nuclear Weapons Policy informs this debate with
an analysis of current nuclear weapons policies and strategies,
including those for deterring, preventing, or preempting nuclear
attack; preventing further proliferation, to nations and
terrorists; modifying weapons designs; and revising the U.S.
nuclear posture. Presidents Bush and Clinton made major changes in
U.S. policy after the Cold War, and George W. Bush's administration
made further, more radical changes after 9/11. Leaked portions of
2001's Nuclear Posture Review, for example, described more
aggressive possible uses for nuclear weapons. This important volume
examines the significance of such changes and suggests a way
forward for U.S. policy, emphasizing stronger security of nuclear
weapons and materials, international compliance with
nonproliferation obligations, attention to the demand side of
proliferation, and reduced reliance on nuclear weapons in U.S.
foreign policy.
