Most nuclear proliferation literature is focused on states seeking
nuclear weapons, conducted in most cases clandestinely. The sharing
of nuclear weapons technology between states is as important
strategically, if unexpected, because nuclear weapons are such a
powerful instrument in international politics. This book proposes
to answer why, if nuclear weapons are such good preservers of
peace, are states not more willing to see them proliferate?
Schofield also examines the underlying phenomenon of the threat of
proliferation races, and how nonproliferation bargains between
adversaries make nuclear sharing far less common. But sharing is
not rare. This book proposes a theory to explain nuclear sharing
and surveys its rich history from its beginnings in the Second
World War, including the cases of France-Israel, US-NATO,
Russia-China, Israel-South Africa, China-Pakistan and
Pakistan-Iran, as well as the incidence of soft balancing and
permissive nuclear sharing in the cases of the US and Japan, Israel
and India.
