Description

This philosophical examination explores the moral and political dimensions of nuclear defence strategy, originally published in 1984. The contributors analyse whether NATO's nuclear deterrence policies genuinely protect Western values or paradoxically undermine them through the means employed. The volume brings together rigorous ethical inquiry and defence policy analysis, examining the fundamental tension between national security objectives and the preservation of democratic principles. Philosophers and scholars investigate civic responsibility in the nuclear state, questioning assumptions about deterrence effectiveness and moral justification. The work remains relevant to contemporary debates about defence spending, strategic doctrine, and the philosophical foundations of security policy. This Routledge Library Editions reprint makes the influential collection accessible to students, academics, and policy professionals seeking to understand the ethical complexities of nuclear defence strategy from multiple philosophical perspectives.
