Summary/Abstract

The success of President Barack Obama's goal of reducing the role of nuclear weapons and setting out on a path toward their elimination is at a critical juncture. Two and a half years after his Prague speech reinvigorated the international community with a promise to "put an end to Cold War thinking" by "reduc[ing] the role of nuclear weapons in our national security strategy,"[1] Obama has ordered a review of the requirements for how the military should plan for the potential use of nuclear weapons.

U S strategic war planning after 9/11 / Kristensen, Hans M

Publication

Summary/Abstract

The U.S. Department of Defense is implementing the 2001 Nuclear Posture Review's requirement to create a "New Triad" of offensive and defensive capabilities. Advocates assert the new posture is necessary to change U.S. deterrence posture from a "one-size-fits-all" plan focused on the Soviet Union to a global posture designed to better deter or defeat all sizes and types of adversaries. This article describes how new policy guidance is reshaping U.S. strategic planning, converting the top-heavy Cold War Single Integrated Operational Plan into a "family" of smaller, flexible plans designed to threaten potential adversaries anywhere on earth and explores how the responses of these adversaries may help to undermine the nonproliferation regime.
