"The proliferation of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons is now the single most serious security concern for governments around the world. Peter R. Lavoy, Scott D. Sagan, and James J.

Distinguished specialists consider several states and organizations that have this weaponry: Iraq, Iran, India, Pakistan, North Korea, and Israel, as well as the Aum Shinrikyo cult.

Paperback. Condition: New. In every decade of the nuclear era, one or two states have developed nuclear weapons despite the international community's opposition to proliferation. In the coming years, the breakdown of security arrangements, especially in the Middle East and Northeast Asia, could drive additional countries to seek their own nuclear, biological, or chemical (NBC) weapons and missiles. This likely would produce greater instability, more insecure states, and further proliferation. Are there steps concerned countries can take to anticipate, prevent, or dissuade the next generation of proliferators? Are there countries that might reassess their decision to forgo a nuclear arsenal? This volume brings together top international security experts to examine the issues affecting a dozen or so countries' nuclear weapons policies over the next decade. In Part I, National Decisions in Perspective, the work describes the domestic political consideration and international pressures that shape national nuclear policies of several key states. In Part II, Fostering Nonproliferation, the contributors discuss the factors that shape the future motivations and capabilities of various states to acquire nuclear weapons, and assess what the world community can do to counter this process. The future utility of bilateral and multilateral security assurances, treaty-based nonproliferation regimes, and other policy instruments are covered thoroughly.…

The rhetoric from two noisy democracies may make it appear that the interests of India and the United States are poles apart on many issues. However if the outside layers comprising ideological and populist pronouncements are peeled aside it is apparent that while there would be inevitable differences in approach there is a convergence on core values concerns and interests. At the same time the hindrances and obstacles that come in the way of a working relationship cannot be simply wished away. A purposeful and forward looking dialogue is one of the necessary steps required to take the partnership to a higher plane. These papers are the outcome of such a dialogue between experts from India and the United States brought together under the aegis of the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses New Delhi and the Center for Contemporary Conflict Monterey. The entire spectrum of the relationship from trade to key geo political areas is covered the Intent being to both flesh out the partnership and to take note of the challenges and the opportunities that lie ahead. Crucial policy inputs are also provided by a number of key interlocutors including the Indian Foreign and Defence Secretaries. India US Relations Addressing the Challenges of the Twenty First Century endeavors to light up the way for a relationship which has ramifications for the world at large. 220 pp.…
