Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First Edition. x, 640 pages; Clean and secure in original black binding in bright, fresh dustjacket. "The definitive guide to the history of nuclear arms control by a wise eavesdropper and masterful storyteller, Michael Krepon. The greatest unacknowledged diplomatic achievement of the Cold War was the absence of mushroom clouds. Deterrence alone was too dangerous to succeed; it needed arms control to prevent nuclear warfare. So, U.S. and Soviet leaders ventured into the unknown to devise guardrails for nuclear arms control and to treat the Bomb differently than other weapons. Against the odds, they succeeded. Nuclear weapons have not been used in warfare for three quarters of a century. This book is the first in-depth history of how the nuclear peace was won by complementing deterrence with reassurance, and then jeopardized by discarding arms control after the Cold War ended. "Winning and Losing the Nuclear Peace" tells a remarkable story of highwire acts of diplomacy, close calls, dogged persistence, and extraordinary success. Michael Krepon brings to life the pitched battles between arms controllers and advocates of nuclear deterrence, the ironic twists and unexpected outcomes from Truman to Trump. What began with a ban on atmospheric testing and a nonproliferation treaty reached its apogee with treaties that mandated deep cuts and corralled "loose nukes" after the Soviet Union imploded. After the Cold War ended, much of this diplomatic accomplishment was cast aside in favor of freedom of action. The nuclear peace is now imperiled by no less than four nuclear-armed rivalries. Arms control needs to be revived and reimagined for Russia and China to prevent nuclear warfare. New guardrails have to be erected. Winning and Losing the Nuclear Peace is an engaging account of how the practice of arms control was built from scratch, how it was torn down, and how it can be rebuilt.

Three Ring Binder. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : No DJ present. Xerox-type reproduction. 141, [1] pages. Notes. Figures. List of Acronyms and Key Terms. Annex. Copied on both sides of the sheet. Some pages blank in the original. Pagination appears complete. Pages have been three-hole punched twice. Michael Krepon co-founded the Stimson Center in 1989. He served as Stimson's President and CEO until 2000, and continues to direct Stimson's programming on nuclear and space issues. He was the University of Virginia's Diplomat Scholar, where he taught from 2001-2010. He is the author and editor of twenty-one books. He worked at the Carnegie Endowment, the State Department's Arms Control and Disarmament Agency and on Capitol Hill. He received the Carnegie Endowment's Thérèse Delpech Memorial Award in 2015 for lifetime achievement in non-governmental work to reduce nuclear dangers. Christopher Oren Clary's research focuses on the sources of cooperation in interstate rivalries. he also studies the causes and consequences of nuclear proliferation, U.S. defense policy, and the politics of South Asia. Previously, He served as country director for South Asian affairs in the Office of the Secretary of Defense (2006-2009), a research associate at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, Calif. (2003-2005), and a research assistant at the Henry L. Stimson Center in Washington, D.C. (2001-2003). I received a Ph.D. in Political Science from MIT. US national security experts spend years studying, seeking to avoid and sometimes helping to mediate or prosecute conflicts. Over time, veteran policy hands in the executive and legislative branches, as well as academia, thinks tanks and the media, come to believe that they understand all the important dimensions of security. And yet, for most, one dimension - space - presents a significant gap in their understanding. Space's importance is major, growing and underappreciated inside the Washington Beltway. Over a half century ago, the US-Soviet space race captured the imagination of the American people, and the manned space program from the 1960s onward bred national competence in the design, manufacture and launch of rockets, satellites and payloads with ever-greater capabilities. Scientific study, helped by access to space, fourished. Civil and military use of space-based communications grew fast as the internet, personal computing and cellular telephony gained widespread adoption beginning in the 1990s. By the end of the decade, the Pentagon recognized that the US military had developed a dependence on spaced-based communications, such that a sudden denial of space-enabled information in wartime could impair the effectiveness of combat units. The military saw from wargaming simulations of future conflict that space assets were like a crystal goblet: exquisite but easily shattered. An adversary would naturally contemplate measures to disable US forces' ability to command and control operations across an entire theater of operations, and to access real-time intelligence and targeting data supplied from distant sources. e enormous warfighting advantage afforded to US forces by space systems was, because of its vulnerability, perceived as an Achilles heel. The conclusion was logical: space had to be defended. Space became a "domain," talked about by defense analysts as one of several discrete arenas of potential confrontation, like air, land, sea or nuclear - or more recently, cyber. For security experts, these can be useful categories; yet here is where the underappreciation of space becomes acute. It is not just that traditional "terrestrial" warfare, involving loss of life, destruction of property and territorial conquest imposes readily-visible costs that society has long recognized as vital interests, while the idea of attacking satellites in space seems a lesser level of aggression. e deeper problem is with the long-term consequences of destructive conflict in space, for these may be poorly anticipated by policymakers during a time of hostilities, and yet, in retrospect, these may prove to be more regrettable than all but the most destructive acts of war in the other "domains." A kinetic-energy ASAT test conducted in 2007 by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) ended complacency over the hazards of space debris. is ASAT test produced more latent capabilities to engage in space warfare have grown, and have become more prominent than 3,000 pieces of debris large enough to track, and tens of thousands of smaller pieces, endangering human spaceflight and hundreds of satellites, without regard for ownership and nationality. The Pentagon demonstrated an agile, sea-based ASAT capability in 2008 by shooting down a non-functioning intelligence satellite, in a manner that minimized debris consequences. As a result of these tests, as well as other significant debris-causing events, recognition of the potential environmental consequences of space warfare is unquestionably greater now than during the Cold War. Reaction to the PLA's 2007 ASAT did not spark mass protests, unlike the case of atmospheric testing. This ASAT test did, however, alarm space operators to such an extent that an international norm against further tests of this kind might take hold.

While space has long been utilized to assist military operations, it has not been weaponized. A new report by the Stimson Center--Space Assurance or Space Dominance? The Case Against Weaponizing Space--argues that the surest way for the United States to lose the military advantages now enjoyed in space is to turn the heavens into a shooting gallery. The Stimson report concludes that US military and economic security is best served by avoiding the flight-testing and deployment of space weaponry. The pursuit of space dominance could impair global commerce, produce long-lasting, environmental debris in space, and harm alliance ties as well as relations between the United States and Russia and China, the two countries whose help is most needed to stop and reverse proliferation. The quest to dominate space could prompt low-cost, low-tech countermeasures in the form of space mines and other anti-satellite devices. Potential adversaries in space would be faced with the dilemma of shooting first or risk being shot. The quest to secure dominion over space would therefore elevate into the heavens the hair-trigger postures that plagued US and Soviet officials during the Cold War.

Hard cover dust wrapper, 270pp. Light wear to edges of dust wrapper/boards; a very good copy. In 2008, the iconic doomsday clock of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists was set at five minutes to midnight - two minutes closer to Armageddon than in 1962, when John F. Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev went eyeball to eyeball over missiles in Cuba. And yet, there have been no mushroom clouds or acts of nuclear terrorism since the Soviet Union dissolved, let alone since 9/11. Michael Krepon argues that the United States has never possessed more tools and capacity to reduce nuclear dangers - from containment and deterrence to diplomacy, military strength, and arms control. The bloated nuclear arsenals of the Cold War years have been greatly reduced, nuclear weapon testing has almost ended, and all but eight countries have pledged not to acquire the Bomb. Major powers have less use for the Bomb than at any time in the past. Thus, despite wars, crises, and Murphy's Law, the dark shadows cast by nuclear weapons can continue to recede. Krepon believes that positive trends can continue, even in the face of the twin threats of nuclear terrorism and proliferation.
