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.
From Summer 2022 recommended reading from MIT (MIT News).
