Anotace knihy

In "The Long Shadow", leading experts on the unfolding global nuclear environment investigate the purposes and roles of nuclear weapons in the post-Cold War security environment that has Asia as its epicenter. They analyze the nature and content of the national nuclear strategies of relevant states, revealing a range of 'new' roles and strategies for nuclear forces; including coping with the threats posed by transnational non-state actors, achieving foreign policy priorities, demonstrating national power, and preserving freedom of action.So far, they argue, nuclear weapons have had a stabilizing effect in the Asian security region by assuaging the national security concerns of vulnerable states, strengthening deterrence, and preventing the outbreak and escalation of hostilities. Even so, the book's conclusion is that the nuclear weapons in Asia 'cast a long shadow' across the region and beyond: a shadow with far reaching consequences for security and stability in Asia, and the world.
