Summary/Abstract |
The analysis focuses on how the nuclear powers of the west were able to prevent the spread of nuclear weapon possession among their allies within the wider framing of the east-west conflict and by multilateralizing the issue or the eventual solution through NATO. Although the article looks into history, away from the grey of today's nonproliferation problems into the clear-cut past of the east-west conflict with its disputed definition of friends and foes, some of its findings also point to current problems bedevilling NATO policies in this field.
