With the passing of the Cold War, a chapter in the history of
nuclear deterrence has come to an end. Nuclear weapons remain,
however, and nuclear deterrence will again be practiced. Rather
than simply assume that the policy of deterrence has worked we need
to learn the proper lessons from history in order to ensure that
its mistakes are not repeated. Professor Lee furnishes us with the
kind of analysis that will enable us to learn those lessons. This
1993 book is the first post-Cold War assessment of nuclear
deterrence. It provides a comprehensive normative understanding of
nuclear deterrence policy, examining both its ethical and strategic
dimensions. The book poses the question: What kind of nuclear
policy, if any, deserves both moral and prudential endorsement?
