The National Defense University recently hosted a major symposium
to address the challenges to U.S. national security and
international stability posed by the spread of weapons of mass
destruction: nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons, and
missiles as a means of delivery. The need to examine such issues is
clear. Perhaps no problem facing civilian and military decision
makers today is as urgent and important as the effort to control
the proliferation of such weapons. Put simply, WMD proliferation
represents one of the most complex and fundamental threats to
security today. Attended by many of the premier experts in the
field, the NDU Symposium explored a broad spectrum of issues
ranging from the incentives and disincentives for proliferation to
non- and counterproliferation policies and programs. The panelists
discussed such critical issues as how effectively present controls
to prevent proliferation are working and how to protect against
proliferation when it occurs. Most impressively, the participants
ventured to identify alternative perspectives and approaches that
may contribute to meeting the common challenges. All this unfolds
in the pages that follow. It is a search for wisdom, for, as Cicero
said twenty centuries ago, "Weapons are of little use on the field
of battle if there is no wise counsel at home." Ervin J. Rokke
