The State, Society, and Limited Nuclear War by Eric Mlyn
Drawing on theories of the state, archives, and interviews with top defense policymakers, this book tells an important story of interest to any reader concerned with how security policy is fashioned in the United States."Mlyn has put together a new line of argument about the origins and evolution of US. nuclear weapons policy. Most of the literature on nuclear weapons has ignored the role of Congress and has assumed away the role of broader social forces. Mlyn's 'statist lens' therefore provides some valuable new insights." — Scott Sagan, Stanford University
"A lucid, careful, and perceptive study of important questions about how Washington policymakers and forces in American society intersect and interact in the crucial area of nuclear weapons affairs. Mlyn throws light on a vital topic that is too little assessed: how and when nuclear policy is affected by the perceptions and intentions of American society." — Richard Smoke, Brown University
Eric Mlyn is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
