| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Attar Rabbani examines nuclear deterrence in theory as well as in practice during and after the end of the Cold War. His central argument is that technological revolutions pose a serious challenge to the survivability of retaliatory arsenals—the heart of nuclear deterrence—and propel a new arms race among nuclear elites, both recognised and self-declared. |
