| Summary |
To meet new challenges, the United States should expand its conception of nuclear arms control to pursue a broader array of reciprocal restraints. Although robust, legally binding treaties remain the optimal form of arms control, the United States should prepare to press ahead with various forms of nuclear risk reduction and confidence-building measures. American objectives should guide a pragmatic and creative approach to reciprocal restraints rather than allowing legacy forms of arms control agreements to dictate their contemporary function |
