A skeptic's view of nuclear energy
A Cutoff in the Production of Fissile Material
Conference on Disarmament (CD) in Geneva is now considering a convention to prohibit the production of fissile material for weapons. While the UN General Assembly has consistently supported resolutions calling for such a cutoff since 1978, the recent discussions are principally the result of a proposal by President Clinton on September 27, 1993, for a {open_quotes}multilateral convention prohibiting the production of highly enriched uranium or pl…

A Low-Threshold Nuclear Test Ban
Stopping the Sea-Based Counterforce Threat
The Dilemma of Theater Nuclear Weapons
Observers have recently challenged the fundamental tenets of NATO's nuclear doctrine, above all its potentially fateful threat—or bluff—to employ theater nuclear weapons to repel Soviet conventional attacks.

Thus, any strategy for nonproliferation should…
