The event celebrated the accom- plishments of the Academy’s 212 new members, who come from 20 states and 15 countries. Drawn from science, the arts and humani- ties, business, public affairs, and the nonpro½t sector, the class rep- resents 50 universities and more than a dozen corporations. The Ceremony was preceded by a morning brie½ng, where new mem- bers learned about the Academy’s research projects and their influ- ence on public policy. Chief Executive Of½cer Leslie Berlowitz de- scribed the Academy’s long history of promoting useful knowledge and anticipating emerging issues before their importance is widely recognized. Several leaders of Academy projects described their work on a wide range of issues, including the federal funding of science; the global nuclear future; America’s competing research, commercial, and mil- itary interests in space; the effects of corruption on an international scale; and U.S. policy toward Russia. The program also included Harvard economics professor Susan Athey discussed the role of presentations of studies on the impact of mass incarceration; the search advertising platforms in the future of the economy.

  • Working Paper: Do Not Cite Or Circulate Without Permission
    THE COPENHAGEN TEMPTATION: RETHINKING PREVENTION AND PROLIFERATION IN THE AGE OF DETERRENCE DOMINANCE Francis J. Gavin Mira Rapp-Hooper What price should the United States – or any leading power – be willing to pay to prevent nuclear proliferation? For most realists, who believe nuclear weapons possess largely defensive qualities, the price should be small indeed. While additional nuclear states might not be welcomed, their appearance should not be cause for undue alarm. Such equanimity would be especially warrantedWORKING if the state in question PAPER: lacked DO other attributesNOT CITE of power. OR Nuclear acquisition should certainly notCIRCULATE trigger thoughts of WITHOUT preventive militar PERMISSIONy action, a phenomena typically associated with dramatic shifts in the balance of power. The historical record, however, tells a different story. Throughout the nuclear age and despite dramatic changes in the international system, the United States has time and again considered aggressive policies, including the use of force, to prevent the emergence of nuclear capabilities by friend and foe alike. What is even more surprising is how often this temptation has been oriented against what might be called “feeble” states, unable to project other forms of power. The evidence also reveals that the reasons driving this preventive thinking often had more to do with concerns over the systemic consequences of nuclear proliferation, and not, as we might expect, the dyadic relationship between the United States and the proliferator. Factors 1 typically associated with preventive motivations, such as a shift in the balance of power or the ideological nature of the regime in question, were largely absent in high-level deliberations.

Twenty years after the end of the Cold War Hand with the arrival of a new administration in Washington, it is time to think through fundamental questions about the purposes of nuclear deterrence Strategic and the character of the U.S. strategic posture. While the existential threat to the United States has decreased, the rising threat of catastrophic terrorism, the possession and spread of nuclear weapons by other states, and a general worldwide nuclear renaissance continue to influence decisions about America’s Posture strategic posture. Recognizing the changing character of these threats, Congress formed a The Final Report of the commission in 2008 to examine the United States’ long-term strategic posture and make recommendations.
