Summary / Abstract (Note) | The paper shows why large-scale warfare is unacceptable by making a quantitative analysis of its geopolitical consequences. Unacceptablity is viewed in terms of guaranteed loss of position in the global geopolitical hierarchy by the nuclear conflict winner. Quantitative estimates are based on a formalized index system where the chief index is the states's geopolitical status. |
