Recenzje

Why do countries renounce their nuclear ambitions? Rupal Mehta answers this important question with a novel theory and evidence, pointing to the crucial role of external actors such as the United States in shaping incentives for states to undergo nuclear reversal. Accessible, timely, and compelling, the book has enormous implications for ongoing proliferation challenges such as Iran and North Korea and the conduct of US foreign policy."-
