A propos de cet article

xiv, 356, [2] pages. Tabular data. Endnotes. Appendices. About the Contributors. Foreword by Rose Gottemoeller. Includes an chapter by Linton Brooks! This book is the result of a conference held in November 2000 at the Airlie House Conference Center in Warrenton, Virginia. This report provides basic information about U.S. and Russian nonstrategic nuclear weapons. It begins with a brief discussion of how these weapons have appeared in public debates in the past few decades, then summarizes the differences between strategic and nonstrategic nuclear weapons. It then provides some historical background, describing the numbers and types of nonstrategic nuclear weapons deployed by both nations during the Cold War and in the past decade; the policies that guided the deployment and prospective use of these weapons; and the measures that the two sides have taken to reduce and contain their forces. The report reviews the issues that have been raised with regard to U.S. and Russian nonstrategic nuclear weapons, and summarizes a number of policy options that might be explored by Congress, the United States, Russia, and other nations to address these issues. Jeffrey Larsen is a Research Professor in the Department of National Security Affairs, US Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA. He served for 16 years as a senior policy analyst with Science Applications International Corporation, supporting the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, US Air Force Headquarters, US Space Command, US Northern Command, and US Strategic Command. Linton Forrestall Brooks (born August 15, 1938) is an American government official who served as the Under Secretary of Energy for Nuclear Security from 2002 to 2007. Brooks also served as Assistant Director for Strategic and Nuclear Affairs at the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency and was Head of the U.S. Delegation on Nuclear and Space Talks and Chief Strategic Arms Reductions (START) negotiator in the State Department with the rank of ambassador. In this latter capacity, he was responsible for final preparation of the START I Treaty, signed by Presidents Bush and Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev in Moscow on July 31, 1991. In December 1992, he performed a similar function during the final preparation of the January 3, 1993, START II Treaty. Rose Eilene Gottemoeller (born March 24, 1953) is an American diplomat who served as Deputy Secretary General of NATO from October 2016 to October 2019 under Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. She previously served as Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security at the U.S. State Department. As Rose Gottemoeller wrote in the Foreword, The value of this book is that it goes well beyond stock answers to the policy challenge of non-strategic nuclear weapons to wrestle with some important questions: How do strategic and non-strategic weapons relate? Is there military value to them? Can obstacles to traditional arms control measures be overcome? What new and practical steps should we try, if we choose not to relay on traditional arms control? What is the Russian debate over these weapons, and how dies it relate to China's perspective.…
