Description and Table of Contents
Description
This is the first in a series of books on European issues compiled by the Tampere Peace Research Institute (TARPRI). With specially invited contributions, this volume focuses on nuclear security and politics in Europe as they appear in the current period of transition. The nine authors present a variety of views on different aspects of the transitional phase between arms control, which has previously dominated the great powers' politics in these issues, and the step by step process of disarmament. The book starts with an historical survey and provides some theoretical discussion, but most chapters deal with concrete questions of nuclear arms and disarmament in the NATO/European context. Major attention is given to the debate on security doctrines in the Federal Republic of Germany, in view of its central role in contemporary debate within NATO.
