Nuclear Dialogues: The Social (Re)Construction of Nuclear Weapons
ISBN: 9781680535792 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nuclear Dialogues examines how a discursive process constructed the nuclear nonproliferation norm in international relations. Zoë I. Levornik's innovative new study traces the evolution of the norm from the dawn of the nuclear age to the present day and how it emerged and diffused through the actions of antinuclear activists and members of the antinuclear movement. Antinuclear activists did not only protest nuclear weapons, but used discursive action to (re)construct the meaning of nuclear weapons. The invention of the atomic bomb led to debates over its "true" nature and utility. It was a...

Nuclear Deterrence, Morality and Realism
ISBN: 9780198247913 / Angielski / Miękka / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Providing a rigorous and objective ethical analysis of nuclear deterrence, this book discusses such issues as the Soviet menace, possible holocaust, and strategic imperatives. At the same time, the authors unmask types of deterrence that they perceive essentially as moral evasions, maintaining that deterrence cannot be bluffing, pure counterforce, the lesser (or greater) evil, or a step towards disarmament. Concluding that deterrence is unjustifiable, this book examines the new questions of conscience that this raises for us all.

Ambiguity and Deterrence: British Nuclear Strategy 1945-1964
ISBN: 9780198280125 / Angielski / Twarda / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ambiguity and Deterrence focuses on the role of competing strategic beliefs in the formulation of British nuclear strategy between 1945 and 1964. Based on recently released documents, it is argued that the British approach to nuclear weapons during this formative period was characterized by paradox and ambiguity. The paradox was that while there was a widespread consensus in political and military circles in favour of nuclear deterrence, there were constant disagreements over the requirements of an effective deterrent policy. These disagreements centred on six main questions: whether...

Nuclear Weapons and Arms Control in South Asia After the Test Ban
ISBN: 9780198294115 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines an area of the world where arms control is almost non-existent--China, India, and Pakistan--and takes the unusual approach of considering the implications of conventional arms transfers, and in particular India's strategic defenses, for nuclear stability. Building on an analysis of their internal politics and attitudes to nuclear policies, it concludes that certain apparently defensive systems, particularly counter-air systems, have considerable implications for the retention of nuclear capabilities in the region.
