Tactical Nuclear Weapons and NATO

Provided by the U.S. Army War College, this book is the result of the collaboration of scholars and security experts from many disciplines and nations who have come together to tackle questions that are long overdue for an answer:What role is left, if any, for tactical nuclear arms?What are the strategic implications of their presence or removal?How have the Russian, European, and Russian views evolved on this issue, and how much opportunity is there to bring them into a coordinated agreement? What does it mean for NATO to be a 'nuclear alliance?"Should arms control processes like START or conventional arms control include NSNWs or are tactical nuclear arms so outdated that they should be removed from the agenda and reduced laterally?
