Title Proper | Nuclear Ethics? Why Pakistan Has Not Used Nuclear Weapons... Yet |
Language | ENG |
Author | Abdullah, Sannia |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | The Pakistan Army’s prior reluctance to use nuclear weapons has been neither because of deterrence nor a nuclear taboo, but the absence of military utility so far. Those conditions when Pakistan might determine that a nuclear first-strike has military utility and would be ethically justified, however, are constantly being considered today. |
