Most world leaders agree that nuclear terrorism represents the
gravest international security challenge today. Many scholars and
practitioners, however, argue that the United States remains
ill-prepared to cope with this serious and real threat. What role
should the U.S. play in confronting and combating this danger? Is
nuclear terrorism preventable? What steps have the U.S. already
taken to prevent a nuclear catastrophe and what future steps should
the U.S. government take? Esteemed scholars, scientists and
policymakers address these crucial questions from all sides -
strategic, tactical, ideological, and technical. Employing several
vantage points, this special issue of The ANNALS clarifies and
assesses the threat of a nuclear terrorist attack and examines
possible solutions for preventing such a catastrophic event. The
papers in this volume take a comprehensive historical look at the
development of the threat of nuclear terrorism, and assesses how
that threat has changed over time. The highly distinguished list of
contributors to this thought-provoking issue provides readers with
an authoritative overview of this critical and timely topic.
Students, scholars, policymakers, and practitioners will find this
collection a valuable resource for understanding the current threat
level of nuclear terrorism as well as practical recommendations for
reducing the risk of a nuclear terrorist attack.
