Its principal objective was to provide expert analysis of opportunities for transition to deep nuclear disarmament and the major obstacles to that. In Russia and the US, as well as in other P-5 states a belief has been widely spread that only nuclear weapons continue to reliably guarantee national security. Unfortunately, this viewpoint is also shared by the so-called new nuclear-weapon states, i.e. countries that have acquired nuclear weapons in different ways in the recent ten years, and the nations that are only striving for it. Meanwhile, several important considerations make the universal character of these conventional truths seem quite doubtful. Now that the Cold War is over, with the current globalization and increasing global interdependency (to which the current economy crisis has been yet another illustration), nuclear deterrence seems to prevent the threats of the past, the 20th century threats. That is to say, it prevents deliberate nuclear or massive conventional attacks of major powers or their alliances against each other. This threat is now extremely low in its prob- ability and significance. At the same time, nuclear deterrence does not address the real threats of modern times, such as international terrorism, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their delivery systems, ethnic and religious conflicts, to say nothing of the issues related to climate, environment, illegal migration, epi- demics, trans-border crime, etc. As to the dependence of Russia’s security on nuclear weapons, this concept also seems to be rather superficial in practice. It should be remembered that by the time the Warsaw Treaty Organization and the Soviet Union collapsed, Mos- cow had 5 to 7 times more nuclear weapons than today’s Russia. One has to have no faith at all in the Russian people to regard nuclear weapons (most of which are a Soviet legacy) as the sole attribute of Russia as a great power. This would imply an assumption that Russia is non-competitive either in terms of economy, re- search and development innovations, or in terms of improving the citizens’ well- being and political life, as well as in terms of advanced general-purpose forces and conventional arms. In the changing politico-military environment, the perception of strategic stability has significantly expanded as compared to the Cold War era in view of new threats and destabilizing factors. The essence of today’s and future strategic stability requires major adjustment. The contributors to the project have devel- oped and discussed in this book a whole set of pertinent suggestions. 8 PREFACE The signing of a new START Treaty has become an important milestone on the way towards further arms reductions and limitations. This is obviously an im- portant event both in terms of unprecedentedly low levels set forth for the strate- gic weapons of the parties and in terms of the two powers’ resuming the legal co- operation in this area that was suspended for more than a decade. The recent history vividly demonstrates that the processes related to nego- tiations and agreements on nuclear disarmament between Russia and the US should be continuous and consistent. Deadlocks and standstills in the negotiations inevitably lead to the loss of mutual understanding

    SCIENCE & GLOBAL SECURITY ,VOL.,NO.,– http://dx.doi.org/./.. Memoriam: Stanislav Nikolaevich Rodionov (–) Oleg Prilutsky and Frank von Hippel Stanislav Rodionov was a member of the first post-World War II generation of Soviet physicists. He began his scientific career in 1953 in what is now known as the National Research Center “Kurchatov Institute” where he carried out an exper- iment in which, for the first time in the Soviet Union, he captured electrons from tritium decay in a magnetic mirror adiabatic trap. From 1958 to 1973, he worked in the Nuclear Physics Institute of the Siberian Division of USSR Academy of Sciences in Akademgorodok near Novosibirsk. Dur- ing the 1960s, while Rodionov was there, this institute, directed by Academician Budker, built one of the first electron-positron colliders in the world (VEPP-2). Rodionov played a very important scientific-organizational role as the Secretary of the institute’s Scientific Council—its “Round Table.” In 1974, Rodionov returned to Moscow to join the staff of the Soviet Academy of Sciences’ Space Research Institute (IKI) directed by Roald Sagdeev. There he partici- pated in the organization of international collaborations in space research programs, which was a pioneering contribution to opening up Soviet science to the world. Rodionov also supported Sagdeev in doing arms-control research under the aus- pices of the Committee of Soviet Scientists for Peace and Against the Nuclear Threat. This Committee was established during a 17–19 May 1983 All-Union conference of scientists within the Soviet Academy called in response to President Reagan’s 23 MarchspeechaskingAmericanscientiststojoininaStrategicDefenseInitiative to make nuclear-armed ballistic missiles “impotent and obsolete.” Evgeny Velikhov was the first chairman with Sagdeev, Sergei Kapitza and Andrei Kokoshin as his Vice Chairmen.

    John A. Shanahan, Corresponding Author January 11, 2010 Dr. John P. Holdren Director, Office of Science & Technology Policy, Executive Office of the President Washington, D.C. Dear John, We met in Palo Alto, California in 1970, while you were working on your doctorate at Stanford University and I was starting an engineering career in nuclear power. You visited my family in Switzerland in the 1980s, where I was working on Nuclear Power Plant Leibstadt. You have also answered questions over the years on applications of Einstein‘s equations that is much appreciated. Nearly 40 years have passed. We are both still working to make genuine contributions through science and engineering for the lasting benefit of society and the planet. Please hear our statement and pass it on to the President. Peace on earth and preservation of the marvels of nature will not be achieved without a sound energy policy. This policy must include well-managed and well-governed slow- and fast-neutron nuclear power, recycling spent fuels and depleted uranium and possibly thorium. This was the goal of the founding scientists in the 1940s and still is the best way to a reliable and secure energy future. But the world is leaving us behind. At present, 58 new nuclear plants (including two fast reactors, one in Russia and one in India) are under construction in 14 countries. Of these, 20 are in China, 9 in Russia, 6 each in India and South Korea. Only one is in North America, and that is resumed work on a plant that was mothballed in 1988 when it was 80% finished.

Meeting the Enemy 1 Meeting the Enemy British-German Encounters in the Occupied Rhineland after the First World War Tom Williams 1 Negative stereotypes of the German enemy were so pervasive in Britain during the First World War that, when crossing into German territory at the end of the conflict, the writer and social reformer Violet Markham remarked that it was “almost with a shock that you realise that German civilians are not equipped with hoofs and horns or other attributes of a Satanic character” (Markham 1921: 15). Visions of a brutal, arrogant, warmongering “Hun”, disseminated since 1914 in British propaganda as a means of justifying wartime mobilization and sacrifice, proved difficult to sustain once British soldiers and civilians met individual Germans face-to-face in the occupied Rhineland.
