This book analyzes the United States and Russia's nuclear arms
control and deterrence relationships and how these countries must
lead current and prospective efforts to support future nuclear arms
control and nonproliferation. The second nuclear age, following the
end of the Cold War and the demise of the Soviet Union, poses new
challenges with respect to nuclear-strategic stability, deterrence
and nonproliferation. The spread of nuclear weapons in Asia, and
the potential for new nuclear weapons states in the Middle East,
create new possible axes of conflict potentially stressful to the
existing world order. Other uncertainties include the interest of
major powers in developing a wider spectrum of nuclear weapons and
delivery systems, possibly for use in limited nuclear wars, and the
competitive technologies for antimissile defenses being developed
and deployed by the United States and Russia. Other technology
challenges, including the implications of cyberwar for nuclear
deterrence and crisis management, are also considered. Political
changes also matter. The early post-Cold War hopes for the
emergence of a global pacific security community, excluding the
possibility of major war, have been dashed by political conflict
between Russia and NATO, by the roiled nature of American domestic
politics with respect to international security, and by a more
assertive and militarily competent China. Additionally, the study
includes suggestions for both analysis and policy in order to
prevent the renewed U.S.-Russian nuclear arms race and competition
in new technologies. This volume would be ideal for graduate
students, researchers, scholars and anyone who is interested in
nuclear policy, international studies, and Russian politics.
