Based on a detailed analysis of archives and high level interviews
this book looks at the role of beliefs, culture and identity in the
making of British nuclear policy from 1945 through to the present
day. This book also examines Britain's nuclear experience by moving
away from traditional interpretations of why states develop and
maintain nuclear weapons by adopting a more contemporary approach
to political theory. Traditional mainstream explanations tend to
stress the importance of factors such as the 'maximization of
power', the pursuit of 'national security interests' and the role
of 'structure' in a largely anarchic international system. This
book does not dismiss these approaches, but argues that British
experience suggests that focusing on 'beliefs', 'culture' and
'identity', provides a more useful insight and distinctive
interpretation into the process of British nuclear decision making
than the more traditional approaches.
