Seeking the Bomb: Strategies of Nuclear Proliferation

By Vipin Narang, the Frank Stanton Professor of Nuclear Security and Political Science

Princeton University Press · 2022

Much of the work on nuclear proliferation has focused on why states pursue nuclear weapons. The question of how they do so has received little attention - until now. In "Seeking the Bomb," Narang develops a new typology of proliferation strategies: hedging, sprinting, sheltered pursuit, and hiding. Narang delves into the implications these strategies have for nuclear proliferation and international security.
