Nuclear Weapons and Strategic Deterrence – ATI Courses

Although “Strategic Deterrence” has always been something of concern to the world superpowers, the way in which it is performed has changed dramatically as the available weaponry has advanced.  The advent of Nuclear Weapons caused a shift in how Deterrence is implemented, and future advances in weaponry will as well.  This course will look at how Nuclear Weapons have impacted Strategic Deterrence policies, and will examine what deterrence may look like in the future.  Please join us for a one-hour Free Session in March, or the full Nuclear Weapons and Strategic Deterrence  course in June, or both.
