US Presidents and Cold War Nuclear Diplomacy (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Given debates surrounding the emerging "new Cold War," this book provides a much needed revisit into the US foreign policy nuclear domain during the 1945-1990 period. Across nine chapters, the monograph traces the United States' nuclear diplomacy and Presidential strategic thought, transitioning across the early period of Cold War arms racing through to the era's defining conclusion. It reveals that despite the heightened periods when great power conflict seemed imminent, arms control fora and seminal agreements were able to be devised and implemented, providing a needed base in improving bilateral relations-as well as momentarily bringing down the specter of a cataclysmic nuclear war.
