DETERRENCE AND THE NUCLEAR SUPERPOWERS AFTER THE COLD WAR. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Dec 2010, Pages: 92
The main rules of the deterrence theory as well as the policy were formed during the Cold War in the framework of the bipolar interaction of the Unites States and the Soviet Union. After the breakup of the USSR and the bipolar world order the new global security system with the new challenges has emerged. Russia as the successor of the Soviet Union inherited its huge nuclear potential, today comparable only with the potential of the United States. The main aim of the book is to answer the question how the deterrence policies of the nuclear superpowers (Russia and the United States) have been transformed since the end of the Cold War and how this transformation influences the classic rules of the deterrence theory.
